Olympique de Marseille finished fifth in Ligue 1 last term with fifty-nine points, whereas Paris FC ended up eleventh with forty-four points, but this matchday three fixture at the start of September reshaped early expectations. Paris FC translated that upward trajectory into a remarkable leap in the table, jumping from seventh to second place with two wins and a draw from three outings.

Koleosho, adding a second before the interval assisted by Pablo Pagis, and converting a penalty late in the contest.
