The last time the Werkself faced the French club was in 2014 during pre-season in Seekirchen, Austria, losing 4-1.

Marseille finished third in France’s Ligue 1 last season to secure book a place in qualification for the UEFA Champions League. The first leg of their third-round qualifier takes place the week after facing Leverkusen (8/9 August).

Marseille’s coach as of July is Marcelino. The Spaniard has two former Bundesliga players in his squad in Amine Harit and Matteo Guendouzi.
