PARIS (Reuters) - Olympique de Marseille's away form continued to undermine their French title ambitions on Friday when they were beaten 2-1 at 10-man Nice on Friday.

Marcelo Bielsa's side have not won on the road in Ligue 1 since October and mid-table Nice's third straight win means Olympique Lyonnais will remain top at the end of the weekend irrespective of Sunday's visit of Metz.
