Premier League announces French anthem to be played before weekend matches

The Premier League has announced the French national anthem will be played before all matches this weekend in remembrance of those affected by the terror attacks on Paris.

There are 72 French players at top-flight clubs, the biggest number from a single nationality after England, and a choral version of La Marseillaise will be played after the coin toss, with players from both teams joining officials in the centre circle facing the main stand.
