With new managers at the helm for both sides—Bruno Genesio for the hosts and Hugo Oliveira for the visitors—it was Olympique Marseille who successfully ushered in their new era. A sparkling display from the influential Igor Paixao and the clinical finishing of Amine Gouiri ensured the hosts claimed all three points in convincing fashion.

The contest remained delicately poised throughout a first half in which Marseille's territorial dominance went unrewarded. However, the complexion of the game shifted instantly after the restart. Within seconds of the second-half kick-off, Paixao burst down the left flank and found Angel Gomes, with the Englishman teeing up Gouiri to prod home from close range.

That breakthrough proved the catalyst, and the momentum swung further in Genesio's favour in the 59th minute when Morocco's Samir Mourabet was shown a straight red card for a reckless challenge. Reduced to ten men, Strasbourg were left with a mountain to climb.

Matters soon went from bad to worse for the visitors. Just three minutes later, Ivory Coast's Guela Doue hauled down Paixao inside the area to concede a penalty. Amine Gouiri stepped up to coolly dispatch his second of the night and all but secure Marseille's first victory of the Ligue 1 campaign. Late strikes from Keyliane Abdallah and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, in the 89th minute and stoppage time respectively, added further gloss to an emphatic scoreline.
