Last season their Coupe de France adventure ended in the 7th round.

The data says 7 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses. 3W-0D-0L is the hard facts regardless of venue in the Coupe de France for Lorient. Ever since the Troyes game Lorient has been unbeatable here at Stade Yves Allainmat-Le Moustoir producing four straight wins.

Paris Saint Germain form and stats

They also participated in Coupe de France last season. This ended in the final.

Paris Saint Germain's travelling support has been rewarded for their time and money so far this season, having witnessed Paris Saint Germain collect 24 points from their 10 away matches in the Ligue 1. 8 victories and 0 draws have created these points (and only 2 defeats). A great winning streak in away games for Paris Saint Germain as they have managed to win four matches in a row as the visitors. Not since the Dijon have they travelled home without three points.

It's the second away game in a row for Paris Saint Germain, but there's smiles all around after the 4-1 victory versus Monaco in the Ligue 1 last time out. A draw for Paris Saint Germain before that, at their own venue hosting Monaco (3-3).

As mentioned earlier, Paris Saint Germain will not be satisfied unless they get a comfortable victory in this game. Performing as huge favourites away from home has earlier resulted in 16 wins (13 by two or more goals winning margin), 3 draws and 1 surprising defeat.

The schedule is very tough for Paris Saint Germain now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Coupe de la Ligue game at Reims is waiting in only three days.

The Paris Saint Germain manager T. Tuchel has got the team scoring on the road, with 23 away goals in 10 league matches. Paris Saint Germain are defending well in their away games, having conceded only 8 times in 10 matches. For more goal statistics, check out the Statistics tab above.
