Dunkerque failed to find their feet in Ligue 2, as they fell to a 2-0 defeat to Bastia when the two sides squared off at the Stade Armand Cesari on Friday. With that, Luís Castro’s men have lost three consecutive matches in the second tier, conceding 10 goals and scoring three since a 2-1 victory over Ajaccio on March 3.

Dunkerque, who are fifth in Ligue 2, return to action in the Coupe de France, where they stormed to the Round of 16 before knocking out LOSC Lille and Stade Brestois to book their spot in the semi-finals.

Meanwhile, PSG needed penalties to see off RC Lens in December’s cup opener before comfortably seeing off Espaly, Le Mans and Stade Briochin, scoring 13 goals and keeping two clean sheets.

Luis Enrique’s men head into Tuesday’s Cup clash fresh off a 6-1 mauling of Saint-Etienne in Ligue 1, where they are atop the table with a healthy 21-point lead over second-placed AS Monaco.

PSG are on a run of four back-to-back victories, including a shootout win over Premier League leaders Liverpool in the Champions League Round of 16.
