Match ticket for the 2006–07 season.

French football clubs Paris Saint-Germain and Olympique de Marseille share an intense rivalry; matches between the two sides are referred to as Le Classique.[1] The duo first met for the 18th matchday of the 1971–72 French Division 1 on December 12, 1971, with locals OM defeating PSG by a marker of 4–2 at the Stade Vélodrome. They have since consistently clashed across several national competitions such as the Ligue 1, the Coupe de France, the Coupe de la Ligue and the Trophée des Champions.[2]

PSG and OM, however, have never been drawn together in UEFA competitions. The closest they were of facing one another in Europe was in the 2008–09 edition of the UEFA Cup, but were eliminated in the quarter-finals by Ukrainian teams Dynamo Kyiv and Shakhtar Donetsk, thus preventing a semi-final matchup between them.[2][3]

Both clubs have played each other in a total of 105 official matches. Paris lead in head-to-head results with 48 wins to Marseille's 34, while the remaining 23 games ended in a draw. The fixture is more balanced in Ligue 1 with PSG claiming the three points on 35 occasions to OM's 32. By contrast, PSG have been the dominant team in cup ties. Out of 18 games, the Parisians have won 13, drawn three and lost only twice.[2]

In spite of regularly locking horns in domestic tournaments, PSG and OM have rarely encountered in a final. They have only played four; the Parisians claimed the 2006 and 2016 French Cup titles as well as the French Super Cup in 2020, while the Olympians clinched the French Super Cup in 2010.[2] In the rivalry's history, only one game has been cancelled. Scheduled to be held in March 2020, it was never played because of the COVID-19 pandemic in France.[4]
