Ligue 1
Marseille started their Ligue 1 campaign with an impressive 2-0 victory and continued through a very fine form usually never being below 6th so they did have some very hard times, dropping points and losing or drawing important games but soon after they were flying high and now after 30 games, l'OM tops the Ligue 1 with a game in hand. Now that it has reached the firing line in the league, Marseille are in the lead but there are lots of challengers for the Ligue 1 with only 3 points spliting the top five teams.League table

UEFA Champions League
Marseille were put into pot three in group C with two big football giants Real Madrid and AC Milan. Marseille started off very bad losing their opening game at home to AC Milan. In their next game Marseille also lost by a huge margin, 3-0 to Real Madrid. Marseille had to win games if they are to stay in the Champions league and they did just that winning against the Swiss champions Zürich in both of their away and home match. Marseille still contunied their fine form but failed to get 3 points away at Italy. They could only get one point meaning that they must win their next clash against Real Madrid or else they are in the Europa League and also hope that AC Milan lose to Zurich but it was not to be Marseille lost 3-1 to Madrid meaning that they will go into the Europa League as a seeded team.Group C
