Previous meetings • The teams are meeting for the first time. • Marseille's ten games against Portuguese sides have produced the following results: W2 D2 L6 (W2 D1 L2 in Marseille). • Vitória SC's only past encounters with French opponents were a pair of 2013/14 UEFA Europa League group stage matches against Lyon – they drew 1-1 in France but lost 2-1 at home. Form guide • Marseille have won all three of their European home games this season. • Vitória SC are without a win in 11 UEFA away matches (D3 L8) – a run stretching back to a 1-0 victory at Wisła Kraków in September 2005. • Fifth in France last term, Marseille last featured in the UEFA Europa League group stage in 2015/16 when they made it to the round of 32, eventually losing to Athletic Club. • Fourth in the Liga and runners-up in the Portuguese Cup last season, Vitória SC are participating in their third UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League group stage. They have yet to make it through. Trivia and links • The journey from Guimaraes to Marseille is around 1,150km. • Vitória SC midfielder Alhassan Wakaso played in France last term with Lorient, figuring in a 4-1 home defeat by Marseille. • Vitória SC's Guillermo Celis and Apollon's Anton Maglica were the most-fouled players on the first two matchdays, with ten infringements against each. • Marseille's Adil Rami won the 2015/16 UEFA Europa League with Sevilla. The coaches • Marseille coach since 2016, Rudi Garcia started out as a midfielder at Lille, returning to lead the club from 2008–13 and masterminding their domestic double triumph in 2010/11. He subsequently spent three seasons in charge at AS Roma. • Vitória SC coach since summer 2016, Pedro Martins previously managed Marítimo (2012/13) and Rio Ave (2014/15) in this competition's group stage. A former Guimarães midfielder, he was capped once during his time at Sporting CP (1995–98). 4 Olympique de Marseille - Vitória SC Thursday 19 October 2017 - 19.00CET (19.00 local time) Match press kit Stade Vélodrome, Marseille Team facts Olympique de Marseille Formed: 1899 Nicknames: Les Olympiens (The Olympians), Les Phocéens (The Phocians), OM UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • European Cup (1): (1991), 1993 • UEFA Cup: (1999), (2004) • UEFA Intertoto Cup (1): 2005 Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) League title: 9 (2010) French Cup: 10 (1989) League Cup: 3 (2012) Ten-year record (UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup unless indicated otherwise) 2016/17: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2015/16: round of 32 2014/15: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2013/14: UEFA Champions League group stage 2012/13: group stage 2011/12: UEFA Champions League quarter-finals 2010/11: UEFA Champions League round of 16 2009/10: round of 16 (having transferred from UEFA Champions League group stage) 2008/09: quarter-finals (having transferred from UEFA Champions League group stage) 2007/08: round of 16 (having transferred from UEFA Champions League group stage) Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 7-1: Marseille v US Luxembourg 03/10/73, UEFA Cup first round second leg 6-0: Marseille v CSKA Moskva 17/03/93, UEFA Champions League group stage • Biggest away win 0-7: Žilina v Marseille 03/11/10, UEFA Champions League group stage • Heaviest home defeat 0-4: Marseille v Liverpool 11/12/07, UEFA Champions League group stage • Heaviest away defeat 6-0: Köln v Marseille 06/11/73, UEFA Cup second round second leg UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup • Biggest home win 7-1: Marseille v US Luxembourg (see above) • Biggest away win 0-5: US Luxembourg v Marseille 18/09/73, first round first leg • Heaviest home defeat 1-2 twice, most recently v Benfica 18/03/10, round of 16 first leg 0-1 four times, most recently v Fenerbahçe 22/11/12, group stage • Heaviest away defeat 6-0: Köln v Marseille (see above) Vitória SC 5 Olympique de Marseille - Vitória SC Thursday 19 October 2017 - 19.00CET (19.00 local time) Match press kit Stade Vélodrome, Marseille Formed: 1922 Nickname: Conquistadores (Conquerors) UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets) • none Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets) Portuguese Cup: 1 (2013) Ten-year European record (UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup unless indicated otherwise) 2016/17: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2015/16: third qualifying round 2014/15: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2013/14: group stage 2012/13: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2011/12: play-offs 2010/11: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2009/10: did not take part in UEFA club competition 2008/09: first round (having transferred from UEFA Champions League third qualifying round) 2007/08: did not take part in UEFA club competition Records UEFA club competition • Biggest home win 4-0: Vitória SC v Rijeka 19/09/13, UEFA Europa League group stage • Biggest away win 0-1: Wisła Kraków v Vitória SC 29/09/95, UEFA Cup first round second leg • Heaviest home defeat 0-4 on three occasions, most recently v Atlético Madrid 25/08/12, UEFA Europa League play-offs second leg • Heaviest away defeat 5-0: Aston Villa v Vitória SC 28/09/1983, UEFA Cup first round second leg UEFA Europa League/UEFA Cup • Biggest home win 4-0: Vitória SC v Rijeka (see above) • Biggest away win 0-1: Wisła Kraków v Vitória SC (see above) • Heaviest home defeat 0-4 on three occasions, most recently v Atlético (see above) • Heaviest away defeat 5-0: Aston Villa v Vitória SC (see above) 6 Olympique de Marseille - Vitória SC Thursday 19 October 2017 - 19.00CET (19.00 local time) Match press kit Stade Vélodrome, Marseille Squad list Olympique de Marseille Current season All-time QUAL UEL League UEL UEFA No. Player Nat.
