Pierre-Emile Højbjerg and Amir Murillo set to miss Marseille’s trip to Reims | OneFootball

They were two key players missing during Olympique de Marseille’s Classique defeat to Paris Saint-Germain before the international break, and it looks like their absence will extend to this weekend’s return to Ligue 1 action. According to a report from RMC Sport, both Pierre-Emile Højbjerg and Amir Murillo are set to miss out on Marseille’s trip to Stade de Reims on Saturday afternoon (17:00 CET). OM are hoping, however, that the pair will be available to face Toulouse at the Vélodrome a week later.  There is good news for Marseille though, as midfielder Ismaël Bennacer is reportedly ready to return to training, according to RMC. The Algerian international suffered an injury just before facing Paris Saint-Germain, leaving Roberto De Zerbi with a last minute selection headache before Les Phocéens’ 3-1 loss at the Parc des Princes. GFFN | George Boxall
