Perhaps a welcome break from league football as these teams face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Coupe de France. All the pre-match information is available here!
This should be an interesting game with lots of spark and energy as both teams are well rested since they last saw competitive action. Game on!
Saint-Étienne have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 900 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

Saint-Étienne form and stats
Saint-Étienne's mission in Coupe de France last season failed in the 16th finals.The story so far for the visiting team on their Ligue 1 travels is 4 wins, 0 draws and 6 defeats. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on C. Puel, the Saint-Étienne manager, as the last three away games were defeats. It's a growing despair in Saint-Étienne as they have recorded three consecutive losses.
Two away games in a row for Saint-Étienne, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 1-2 versus Strasbourg in the Ligue 1. Preceding that game was the away Coupe de la Ligue victory against Nimes with the score of 2-1.
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Saint-Étienne manager C. Puel as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against PSG.
Saint-Étienne are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 11 away goals from 10 games (in the league). Defensive performances away have varied in quality as Saint-Étienne have conceded 18 goals on the road. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
