Preview: Marseille vs. Lille

Marseille go into Sunday's Ligue 1 clash with Lille looking to halt an alarming run of just one win in nine matches in all competitions.

Elie Baup's side have sorely missed injured strike pair Andre Pierre-Gignac and Loic Remy but remain just two points off top spot in a tight French title race.

Lille have also been inconsistent this season but gained a credible 2-0 victory against BATE Borisov in midweek despite fielding an inexperienced side.

Rudi Garcia's men need Salomon Kalou to start firing in attack if they are to move away from midtable mediocrity.

Recent form:
