Olympique de Marseille hits another stumbling block in Ligue 1, drawing against Metz, second-to-last in the standings, extending the southern team's poor run in 2024 under Gennaro Gattuso's leadership.

In fact, the Italian coach has his team without a win in the French league so far this year. In total, four matches, three ending in draws and one in defeat.

They have barely collected three points out of the last 12 possible (4 out of 15 if we count the last match of 2023). This leaves them currently eighth in the table.

This streak contrasts with how Marseille ended 2023, when it seemed that Gattuso had found the right formula and the team was functioning. They even managed to string together four consecutive victories. Everything seemed to be going well, but 2024 arrived and everything fell apart.

Eliminated from the Coupe de France as well, these are Gattuso's lowest moments at Olympique de Marseille, which will have to start anew for the Europa League, where they face Shakhtar this Thursday.

Next, they will visit the surprising Brest in Ligue 1, a challenging match for the "Focenses" that you can enjoy here on beIN SPORTS.
