Catch PSV v Marseille on Sky Sports Xtra

PSV Eindhoven entertain Marseille in Group D with both sides in desperate need of a win to kick-start their campaigns. Both sides have lost their opening two games and are already playing catch-up to group rivals Liverpool and Atletico Madrid. Marseille chief Eric Gerets will be determined to get one over his former club after serving as a player and manager at PSV. The French side have no injury problems to contend with for the trip to Eindhoven. Marseille, who are unbeaten in Ligue 1, welcome back captain Lorik Cana and Karim Ziani after they missed last weekend's win over Valenciennes because of suspension. PSV have promised all-out attack against Marseille, but they have to make do without former Liverpool defender Jan Kromkamp after he picked up a groin injury. Francisco Rodriguez is expected to replace Kromkamp at right-back for Huub Stevens' side. Peru starlet Reimond Manco is set to miss out because of illness and the game has come too soon for Mike Zonneveld after a back problem.
