Even if Lyon is not having the best season, sitting ninth in the Ligue 1 standings and already out of the race for a spot in the Champions League they have won over PSG in their last game in Paris and are now motivated to win the Cup. The Coupe de France is now their only chance to qualify for any of Europe's competitions. Lyon has already faced Metz, Chambery Savoie Foot, Lille, and Grenoble Foot 38 to reach this stage, and they will be facing Nantes in their next match. Lyon will be relying on star striker Alexandre Lacazette, who leads the team with four Coupe de France goals, as well as Bradley Barcola, who is likely to step up in place of the injured Amin Sarr. The team is expected to employ a 3-4-1-2 formation, with Lacazette and Barcola as the first-choice options as forwards. Left-back Nicolas Tagliafico is at risk for suspension after picking up four yellow cards.Nantes, on the other hand, will be trying its best to hold its ground on home turf. They have only won three out of the last 20 match-ups against Lyon, and their coach Antoine Kombouare has only won twice over Lyon's coach Laurent Blanc in their last 10 head-to-head matches. Both teams have been scoring goals recently, but Lyon seems to have a slight edge over Nantes.

即使里昂本赛季表现不佳，在法甲排名第九，已经无缘欧冠，但他们在巴黎的最后一场比赛中战胜了巴黎圣日耳曼，现在有动力赢得奖杯。法国杯现在是他们获得欧洲比赛资格的唯一机会。里昂已经面对了梅斯，尚贝里，里尔和格勒诺布尔足38，他们将在下一场比赛中面对南特。里昂将依靠明星前锋亚历山大·拉卡泽特，他以四粒法杯进球领跑全队，还有布拉德利·巴可拉，他很可能取代受伤的阿明·萨尔。球队预计将采用3-4-1-2阵型，拉卡泽特和巴可拉将成为前锋的首选。左后卫塔利亚菲科因吃到四张黄牌而面临停赛的危险。另一方面，南特将尽最大努力在主场站稳脚跟。他们在过去20场对阵里昂的比赛中只赢了3场，而他们的教练安托万·孔布瓦雷在最近10场正面交锋中只赢了里昂教练劳伦特·布兰科两次。两支球队最近都有进球，但里昂似乎比南特略占优势。
