What people sing
Jump (for OM) / Allez l'OM
Terrace songs built for a packed Vélodrome. Volume matters more than perfect lyrics.
Who the rivals are
Paris Saint-Germain
Le Classique. Marseille against the capital, and the fixture that still defines French club football for many supporters.
Paris FC and others in the capital
The broader dislike of Parisian clubs shows up whenever OM travel north.
Following them from America
Smaller than PSG's American footprint, but intense where it exists, especially among fans who prefer the south to the capital.
