Remains sidelined against Angers

Hojbjerg (muscle) remains unavailable for Sunday's Ligue 1 clash against Angers as he continues his recovery from a muscular injury.

Analysis: Hojbjerg will miss another match after failing to recover in time from the muscular issue he sustained during the international break. The midfielder had recently resumed individual training, but he has yet to regain sufficient fitness to return to competitive action. His absence leaves Marseille without a regular starter in midfield, while his availability for the following fixture will depend on his progress in training over the coming days.

Nets on opening day

Hojbjerg scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 4-0 victory against Strasbourg.

Analysis: Hojbjerg added the fourth from long range in stoppage time. He recorded 79 passes and also contributed defensively with two interceptions and a tackle. He ended last season with a goal on the final matchday and now managed to net one on opening day.
