After Tuesday’s declarations by the Minister of Sports, Roxana Maracineanu, that no Ligue 1 matches would be postponed this weekend, a meeting at the prefecture this Wednesday has confirmed that this Saturday’s derby between OGC Nice and Monaco (kick-off 20:00) will go ahead as normal and will not be played behind closed doors. No special restrictions have been announced. 

However, in order to contain the spread of the coronavirus the LFP’s Competitions Commission has modified the pre-match protocol and has prohibited handshaking between the coaches, referees and match delegates in all LFP sanctioned competitions.
