After Lyon in the Europa League, it was Marseille, another French representative still involved in the European Cup, who learned the name of his opponent.
The Phocaeans will have an appointment in a warm European atmosphere.
They will indeed travel to Thessaloniki on April 14 in the quarter-final first leg of the Europa League Conference, a week after receiving PAOK in the first leg at the Stade Vélodrome.
The Greeks have just taken out Gantoise in the previous round (1-0, 2-1).

OM can be all the more satisfied with the draw as the table is generally open.
Because the Phocaeans know that in the event of qualification for the semi-final, they will play against the winner of the duel between Feyenoord Rotterdam and Slavia Prague, on April 28 and May 5.
All with a return match at the Vélodrome stadium.
Quarter-finals ✅

The winner of this confrontation will meet AS Rome or the Norwegians of Bodo / Glimt in the last four.
