Sow doubtful for Lille

Ligue 1 top scorer Moussa Sow is doubtful for Lille's home game against Arles-Avignon on Saturday because of a thigh injury, the northern club said.

Former France keeper Gregory Coupet is expected to be fit for Paris Saint-Germain's home game against Valenciennes on Saturday after recovering from a back injury.

"It's not my position but the coach know what he is doing, we just have to give our best," Ayew told the club's website.

"We all try to give something extra to the team." Marseille lead the standings on 61 points ahead of their home match against Auxerre on Sunday.
