Scores first goal of season
Paixao scored one goal to go with eight shots (two on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one corner in Sunday's 5-2 win versus Angers.
Analysis: Paixao scored once from eight shots, putting two on target, while adding one cross and one corner across 90 minutes in Sunday's 5-2 victory at Angers. He was Marseille's most active shooter throughout the contest, missing several opportunities during the first half before finally finding the net in the 85th minute, converting Timothy Weah's headed pass with a composed right-footed finish. The goal was Paixao's first of the Ligue 1 campaign, ending his early-season scoring drought after a particularly frustrating stretch in front of goal.
Should return against Nantes
Paixao (calf) returned to team training and is expected to be back in the squad for Saturday's trip to Nantes, according to La Minute OM.
Analysis: Paixao had been sidelined for two weeks after sustaining a calf injury during the defeat at Lorient, but his return to collective sessions is right on the timeline that had been set. The Brazilian winger has been Marseille's most dangerous attacking weapon in recent weeks and his comeback is a significant boost for coach Habib Beye heading into the final stretch of the season. If deemed fit to do so, Paixao should regain his starting role against the Canaries.
