The 2014–15 Olympique de Marseille season was the 65th professional season of the club since its creation in 1899 and 19th consecutive season in the top flight.
This was the first season in ten years that Marseille did not participate in the UEFA Champions League or UEFA Europa League, having finished sixth in the 2013–14 Ligue 1 season. The club was coached by legendary Argentine tactician Marcelo Bielsa, who signed a two-year contract in May 2014.
This was also the first season in which the side played at the renovated Stade Vélodrome, with the stadium having completed renovations which took place over the last three years. Capacity went up to 67,000 - from 48,000 last season, and 42,000 the season before. The stadium is rated five-star by UEFA, and was used ahead for the UEFA Euro 2016.

Notes:
- ^ Since winners of the 2014–15 Coupe de la Ligue, Paris Saint-Germain, qualified for European competition based on their league position, the spot awarded to the Coupe de la Ligue winner (Europa League third qualifying round) is passed to the next best team in the table not already qualified for any European competition (in this case, the fifth-placed team).
