National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Lucon or Laval that keep their silverware dream alive.
This promises to be an absorbing fixture with lots of action and bustle as both contenders are well renewed since they last ran out on the pitch. Bring it on!
Lucon form and stats
Last season, Lucon's Coupe de France journey ended in the 7th round.The story so far in the National for Lucon at their home stadium is 7 wins, 6 draws and 4 defeats. The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a league-game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in ten attempts.
The home supporters saw a 3-3 draw versus Les Herbiers in the National last time out and are looking for a win here. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?
Heartbreak before that as Lucon lost 0-1 at Beziers's place.A decent goal production from Lucon in their home games so far, with 27 goals from 17 league matches. Lucon have conceded 26 from these games.
Laval form and stats
Last season their Coupe de France adventure ended in the 8th round.Laval's travelling support has been rewarded for their time and money so far this season, having witnessed Laval collect 13 points from their 6 away matches in the National. 4 victories and 1 draw have created these points (and only 1 defeat). Laval has been amazing away for a time now, winning four in a row on their travels. The last time they went home with a point loss was against Bastia-Borgo.
Did you know that the longest clean sheet streak is 1816 minutes? This record is held by Mazaropi when he played in Vasco da Gama. Laval goalkeeper Over Mandanda is eager to challenge this, with his 234 minutes of keeping balls out from the net.

Before that one, a nice away victory 1-0 at Sedan.Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Laval have scored 6 goals in 6 league games away.
