Marseille, Montpellier game postponed

Marseille, Montpellier game postponed

Marseille's Ligue 1 match with Montpellier later this month has been postponed as the French League attempt to aid their Champions League campaign.

Didier Deschamps's side host Bayern Munich in the competition's last eight on March 28 and then travel to Germany to face the Bundesliga side six days later.

They had been scheduled to clash with championship contenders Montpellier in between those dates.

However, the French League have delayed the game in a bid to ease Marseille's busy calender and see them through to the semi-finals of Europe's premier tournament.

Marseille beat Inter Milan on away goals to progress to the quarter-finals.
