The capital giant won every possible trophy in 2025, including finally clinching the Champions League. The only exception came in the summer when they lost to Chelsea in the Club World Cup final. However, they got their revenge on the English side in March by beating them twice. After that, in the quarterfinals against Liverpool, they also took the maximum. Domestically, they only won the Supercup on penalties and soon after lost to Paris FC in the national cup. In Ligue 1, it was only in the spring that they pulled away from Lens. Toulouse was also confidently defeated.
Olympique barely secured sixth place last spring—Strasbourg had the same number of points. Now, they remain inconsistent. After a strong main round in the Europa League, the French side lost at home to Celta in the round of 16 in March. Shortly before that, they lost on penalties to Lens in the cup. At the same time, they experienced a prolonged slump in the league. Only in the previous round did they finally beat Lorient—and with a convincing 2-0 score.
The champion is still performing well: scoring 2.26 goals per game while conceding 0.85. Their next visitor averages 1.48 goals scored and 1 conceded per match.
