Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Linas-Montlhery & Dunkerque 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!
Linas-Montlhery form and stats
Last season their Coupe de France adventure ended in the 32nd finals.The Linas-Montlhery crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 2-3 to Bretigny Foot here in a National 3: Group K match.
In the game before, an away victory in the National 3: Group K match versus Ivry US with a 2-1 scoreline.Dunkerque form and stats
Dunkerque's mission in Coupe de France last season failed in the 8th round.There's been little loot from Dunkerque's travels as they have only collected 7 points from 7 away games in the Ligue 2. Dunkerque only have 2 wins to counter their 4 defeats and 1 draw.
There might be some fixture complaints from Dunkerque as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the Ligue 2 match against Grenoble Foot 38 (0-1). Dunkerque goalkeeper Axel Maraval enjoyed a super shift against Grenoble Foot 38, but even with making six saves the defeat could not be stopped. Late heartbreak for Dunkerque in the Grenoble Foot 38 match, as the deciding 0-1 goal came deep into overtime. Axel Maraval was the team player of the game with the player rating of 7.84. The agile goalkeeper Maraval stopped the opponent with six saves.
Prior to that match, a home win 1-0 against Le Havre in the Ligue 2.The visiting Dunkerque have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 8 goals from 7 games. As opposed to that, Dunkerque have seen the ball go into their own net 10 times on the road.
