Marseille travel to Lorient in Ligue 1 on Sunday fresh off the back of a memorable Derby des Olympiques thrashing in midweek.
Gennaro Gattuso recorded his finest result in the Marseille dugout, beating Lyon 3-0 on Wednesday to move them closer to the European places.
After seeing his 2006 World Cup winning teammate Fabio Grosso sacked by Lyon last week, Gattuso handed his temporary replacement Pierre Sage a bruising night at the Velodrome as Marseille thumped their bitter rivals.
That victory means OM have won six and drawn three of their last 11, with 1-0 losses away to Lens and Nice the only blips since late September.
Marseille are back on the road this weekend after three straight home games, though, as three of their final four games of 2023 will be away from the Velodrome.
Those three home games brought great success, recording three straight wins in thrilling fashion - 4-3 versus Ajax, 2-0 over Rennes, and the big derby win against Lyon.
