Marseille welcome Red Bull Salzburg to the Orange Velodrome on Thursday for the first leg of their UEFA Europa League semi-final.
The hosts are slight favourites going into the game and warmed up for the clash nicely with a 5-1 thrashing of Lille on Saturday.
However, Salzburg are also in good form and, having scored 13 goals in their last four outings, will fancy their chances of claiming an away goal.
Here's a look at how you can watch the game, followed by team news and a match preview.

Team News
Marseille have injury problems and will be without goalkeeper Steve Mandanda who is expected to miss the rest of the domestic season with a thigh problem, per Ligue 1.
The club have also confirmed Japanese international Hiroki Sakai is out for three weeks with a knee injury, via their official website.
Boubacar Kamara is also a doubt after missing Sunday's win over Lille with injury, but both Rolando and Bouna Sarr made their returns in the game and should be available.
RB Salzburg don't have any new injury concerns going into the match but are able to welcome back Diadie Samassekou from suspension.
Payet to Prove the Difference?
Marseille's Dimitri Payet has enjoyed a superb season in the Europa League, and his team may need his creativity and invention to break down RB Salzburg.
