The Coupe de France is back in action with another set of matches this week as Lyon lock horns with Lille in an important clash at the Parc Olympique Lyonnais on Wednesday.
Lyon vs Lille Preview
Lyon are currently in ninth place in the Ligue 1 standings and have largely failed to meet expectations in the competition so far this season. Les Gones eased past Troyes by a commendable 3-1 margin in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result in the Coupe de France this week.
Lille, on the other hand, are in sixth place in the league table at the moment and have been plagued by inconsistency over the course of their league campaign. The away side defeated Rennes by a comprehensive 3-1 margin over the weekend and will look to take it up a notch in this fixture.
