¹Olympique de Marseille was administratively relegated to 1994–95 Division 2, forced to relinquish their 1992–93 Division 1 title, and lost their right to play in the 1993–94 UEFA Champions League, the 1993 European Super Cup and the 1993 Intercontinental Cup, due to the Valenciennes FC-OM match fixing scandal. Despite being relegated, OM kept the right to play in the 1994–95 UEFA Cup.
