Feignies vs Olympique Lyonnais Prediction and Betting Tips | December 21st 2024

Feignies will face Olympique Lyonnais at the Stade du Hainaut on Saturday in the round of 64 of the 2024-25 Coupe de France campaign. The home side currently play in the fourth tier of French football where they have had mixed results all season and will now turn their attention to cup action as they lock horns with one of the nation's powerhouses in the north of France.

They kicked off their cup campaign with a 5-0 dismantling of amateur side Raismes last month before trading tackles with Lucciana in the next round and picking up a 1-0 victory featuring a late winner from Yann Kouadio.

Olympique Lyonnais have enjoyed a largely solid Ligue 1 campaign so far this season and will hope they can find even better fortune in the domestic cup. They were drawn against Pontarlier in their Coupe de France opener last season and picked up a straightforward 3-0 win with Rayan Cherki opening the scoring late in the first-half before former Arsenal duo Alexandre Lacazette and Ainsley Maitland-Niles made sure of the result early in the second.

The visitors are five-time winners of the cup competition and have finished runners-up on another four occasions including last season when they suffered a 2-1 defeat to record champions Paris Saint-Germain in the final.

Feignies vs Olympique Lyonnais Prediction

The National 2 side have performed fairly well in recent matches, winning four of their last six matches. They are however badly mismatched ahead of the weekend clash.

Olympique Lyonnais' latest result ended a four-game winning streak and they now have the perfect chance to restart a new run in emphatic fashion. They are by far the stronger side heading into the cup tie and should coast to victory here.
