Nice vs Lyon

Nice

The hosts came to the 1/8 Final of Coupe de France whitout any big troubles. They won in their first match over the Frejus Saint Raphael, which participate in French National 2 league. During the first half, opponents saved clean sheet but got the red card, what strongly complicated their situation. Nice got a great advantage and used that winning the match with 2:0 result. In the second game, Red Star faced a defeat against Eaglets at Allianz Riviera. Most interesting, that Le Gym used almost strongest their players in both games, what shows their intentions in this tournament.

In Ligue 1 they stand at 12th position but shows much stronger game than at the beginning of the season. Moreover, they are only 4 points away from 4th place Montpellier, so even a few games can totally change the standing position. We expect a big desire to play as good as it is possible in Coupe de France. Patrick Vieira and lots of talented players will achieve great success if they move into the same direction.

Lyon

Olympique Lyonnais stand at 5th place in Ligue 1. They qualified in the playoffs of UEFA Champions League after holding second place in Group G. Slowly but very confidently, this talented squad taking all opportunities and going forward achieving the season goals. During the last 8 games in different competitions, they scored 21 goals what proved the most dangerous attack in France. Dembele, Depay, Aouar lead the squads front line. All these players are fast, creative and very motivated to bring Lyon into the new level. However, Memphis, Karl Toko Ekambi and Jeff Reine-Adelaide will miss the next game due to the injuries. So this should strongly affect the Les Gones game.
