Since joining PSG early this season, Lionel Messi is yet to score a league goal since making his debut.  

The 6 times Ballon d'Or is not excluded from the pressure of joining a new club after leaving Barcelona. He made his debut late August and he's yet to find the ball of the net. 

 

Just like many other players that go through goal drought after making a switch to another club, Lionel Messi's case is no different even though he has scored three goals in three matches in the UEFA Champions League including a brace against RB Leipzig during the week. 

 

He will be facing Olympic Marseille this weekend in a very important game. Neymar and Ibrahimovich are the stars to have scored on their first Le Classique debut. Will Messi be joining them to end his goal drought? Hopefully yes. 

 

The rivalry dates to the 1990s when Olympic Marseille were a force to reckon with in France and Europe. It's going to be a difficult match with lots of action, if Messi should ride on his performance during the weekend he should be able to get a goal in the match.
