Olympique de Marseille Europa League Tickets

Olympique de Marseille are a side with a big reputation thanks to their efforts in continental cup football. The Ligue 1 outfit won the European Cup in 1992/92 and have played many huge matches in the Europa League over the years. Their loyal and passionate fans continue to pour into the 67,394 capacity Stade Velodrome when the club play in domestic and European competitions.

Les Olympiens, as they are nicknamed, have had a number of stars play for them and continue to attract some of the biggest names in world football. In the 21st century, Didier Drogba, Mario Ballotelli, Dmitri Payet, Steve Mandanda and Florian Thauvin have all produced magic on the field in Marseille colours.

Olympique de Marseille have plenty of experience of playing in the UEFA Cup/Europa League over the years, and they have amassed more than 100 appearances in the competition.

In all the appearances they have made in the competition, Les Olympiens have managed to reach the grand final on three different occasions. Unfortunately, they've had to settle for a runners-up spot in each Europa League final that they have played in, losing to Parma, Valencia, and Atletico Madrid in 1998/99, 2003/04 and 2017/18.

Those runs to the final are some of the most memorable moments that the Ligue 1 outfit can look back on in their previous Europa League campaigns. The 2017/18 edition remains freshest in the memory, when Marseille managed to beat the likes of Braga, Athletic Club de Bilbao, RB Leipzig and RB Salzburg before coming up short against Atletico Madrid in the final.

The French side have had rather mixed appearances in the Europa League, as they continuously fail to provide any sense of predictability when hosting games at the Stade Velodrome. Of course, the club have managed to reach the final on three occasions. However, there have also been numerous occasions on which they failed to make it out of the group stage of the competition. Nonetheless, their passionate fans continue to follow their journey across the continent in the hope they will be able to lift the trophy.
