Supporters also chanted songs in a bid to drum up a raucous atmosphere ahead of Tottenham’s arrival at the ground.

It came after a group of Marseille fans set off fireworks at 1am and 4am this morning in a bid to wake up Spurs players sleeping in their hotel.

The French side are looking for every possible advantage ahead of the game, as only a win will send them through the group.

Tottenham only need to avoid defeat to progress and a win will see them win the group.

Marseille star Alexis Sanchez is out to stop Antonio Conte’s side and the forward could have a big role to play.

He was often a thorn in Spurs’ side during his time in England, having only lost once against them while at Arsenal.

Sanchez also scored against Tottenham in an FA Cup semi-final for Manchester United, and the Chilean is determined to get one over on his old foe.

He said: “Beating Spurs every time was a great joy. It was very special and those are memories that I hold dear to my heart.

“Every single player has motivation to play and win. We all want to bring the victory back.

“In the dressing room, there is a lot of passion. Playing in front of the fans with their atmosphere is super important and that will drive us on.”
