Baup: 'Marseille desperate for points at Arsenal'

Marseille manager Elie Baup has outlined his side's determination for getting a result when they face Arsenal on Tuesday night.

Les Phoceens are yet to pick up a point in Group F of the Champions League and have two matches to change that statistic starting with a trip to the Emirates Stadium.

"We do not want to end up with no points – we need to put in our best possible performances in the final two games of the group," Baup said in his press conference.

"In my mind [Arsenal] are a team that have both ability and are also very balanced. They can manage difficult spells in the game and when they are having a good spell they can be decisive.

"The proof is already there in terms of the league – I think they are the best team in our group and there is no problem for them in the UEFA Champions League. They have very good attacking quality. They also have great technical players and a great spirit within the team."

The match gets underway at 7.45pm.
