Lyon arrives for the duel pressured by the recent results in the French Championship. Coach Laurent Blanc’s team has only one victory in the last six French games and occupies the 9th position of the table.
For the Cup game, Lyon will probably repeat the strategy of the last phase (when they advanced against Metz by 2-1) and will use a mixed team. There are great chances of Brazilians Thiago Mendes and Tetรช starting playing.
The home team, on the other hand, is looking to prepare a zebra. Chambery are currently in what would be France’s equivalent of the third division. In the round of 32, the club beat Aubagne 3-1 to face Lyon.
Whoever passes this confrontation still does not have a defined opponent. Lyon is looking for its 5th Cup title (the last one was in 2012). The modest Chambery has no competition titles.
