Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Hauts Lyonnais & Bastia face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the Coupe de France. All the pre-match information is available here!
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Hauts Lyonnais form and stats
Last season, Lyonnais's Coupe de France journey ended in the 7th round.The Lyonnais supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Chambery in CFA 2 Group A and win 1-0.
Preceding that game was the home draw versus Bourgoin-Jallieu that ended 3-3.Bastia form and stats
They also participated in Coupe de France last season. This ended in the 8th finals.Bastia have only collected 6 points from their away games in the Ligue 2, after 2-0-7 (9 played).
Bastia played 2-2 against Sochaux in their previous match. Drawing 2-2 against Sochaux after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 2-0. Their manager Brouard needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result. Attacker Santelli got a player rating of 7.85 in the game. "Man of the match" Santelli hit the woodwork once, served one assist, hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 5 of 7 times.
It was a Ligue 2 defeat before that one as the away game against Paris wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Bastia manager Brouard as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Rodez.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Bastia as they have only managed to score 7 times from 9 away games in the league. Bastia have conceded 14 goals in these games.
