Perpignan centre David Marty has been cleared to face Toulon in their high-profile Heineken Cup quarter-final in Barcelona after seeing a 30-day ban reduced to 20.

The France international is now free to play on April 2, seven days before his side's ground-breaking clash at the Olympic Stadium.

Marty paid the price for his part in an ugly brawl in his side's Top 14 clash with Bayonne, with his team-mate Gregory Le Corvec also suspended for 30 days.

Bayonne duo Jean-Joseph Marmouyet (30 days) and Aretz Iguiniz (20 days, 10 suspended) were also called up following the incident.
