Lyon lose Bastos for Evian encounter

Olympique Lyon will have to deal with the absence of Michel Bastos in their home game against Evian Thonon Gaillard on Saturday after the Brazil winger missed training all week with a back problem.

Argentine striker Lisandro Lopez is also a doubt with a thigh injury that kept his out of training until Thursday.

Montpellier midfielder Younes Belhanda, voted the best Ligue 1 player of November, has been summoned by the French League's disciplinary committee for elbowing an opponent in last weekend's 1-0 defeat at Valenciennes.

"We did not make any offer to the player or to Manchester City but we're in a world where everybody thinks PSG is a team who have the means to make an offer for him," PSG general manager Leonardo told reporters earlier this week.

Kevin Anin, Sébastien Roudet, Yassin Mikari and Abdoul Camara are suffering from the stomach bug.

"It's very tiring and everyone is worn out," club doctor Michel Marey told local paper Le Pays.
