OM-PSG: Parisian supporters allowed at the Vélodrome? The answer falls

The decision was made concerning whether or not to ban Parisian supporters from traveling to the Vélodrome stadium on September 20 for the first Classic of the Ligue 1 season.

The verdict is in. And unfortunately, it comes as no surprise. As has been the case since 2015, Parisian supporters will not have the right to travel to Marseille on Sunday, September 20, for the first Classic of the 2026-2027 season of the French championship.

According to information from RMC Sport, the Ministry of the Interior will publish a travel ban order during the week preceding the meeting. In the meantime, the Bouches-du-Rhône prefecture has taken the lead.

The latter published a decree to prohibit “to park and drive on public roads in the city center and around the Orange Vélodrome stadium in Marseille to any person claiming to be a supporter of Paris Saint-Germain. » A match which will be classified 5 out of 5 by the services of the National Division for the Fight against Hooliganism (DNLH), i.e. the maximum risk level.
