French media: Marseille vs Paris is listed as a high-risk match, Paris fans are restricted from going to Marseille to watch the game

September 11th, the focus of the French Ligue 1 match between Marseille and Paris Saint-Germain will be held next Sunday. French media reported that local police issued a ban to restrict Paris fans from going to Marseille to watch the game. The report said that as expected, the game was classified as a high-risk match. Marseille police have issued a ban on Paris fans traveling to southern France to watch the game, which will soon be strengthened by an executive order from the Ministry of the Interior.

Police explained: "The relationship between Marseille and Paris Saint-Germain fans has been hostile for many years, which is proven by the repeated serious public order riots during the two teams' clash." The police also disclosed that at the beginning of this season, when Paris FC came to Marseille to visit, a Paris Saint-Germain fan successfully mingled into the Verodrome Stadium. The ban by the police further pointed out: "In the match between Marseille and Paris FC on August 23, 2025, a Paris Saint-Germain fan mixed into its fan ranks without the knowledge of the Paris FC Club and posted the stickers of Paris Saint-Germain in the visiting stands, and posted the move on social media, which triggered the anger of extreme fans of Marseille who tried to rush into the stands, but fortunately with the intervention of the police, he was able to avoid chaos."

In addition, Jul's concert was also used as one of the reasons for banning Paris fans from going there. Because there was a chaos in November 2020: Paris Saint-Germain fans went to the Accor Arena in Paris and disrupted the Marseille rapper's performance.
