PARIS — Second-place Marseille saw its unbeaten run end as it lost 3-1 at home to Nice to slip eight points behind French league leader Paris Saint-Germain. Marseille's first league defeat in 10 games means it is only ahead of third-place Lens on goal difference with Monaco now two points back in fourth spot.

Monaco earlier extended its unbeaten run to seven matches with a 2-0 win at Clermont.
