Prediction: 0-2
Montpellier
By beating the likes of Gazelec Ajaccio, Jeunesse Evolution, Montceau, and Nancy, Belfort set up a meeting with Montpellier in the Coupe de France last 16. The National 2 side aim to claim yet another major scalp in the French Cup, but Montpellier are likely to pose a much bigger threat for the hosts than their previous rivals. La Paillade rolled over Caen 5-0 in the previous round, and it should come as no surprise that they are considered hot favourites to win Tuesday’s football match.
Montpellier are on a three-game winning run in the national championship ahead of the trip to Belfort, and we predict that they are going to advance to the quarter-finals of the French Cup without any difficulties. A man to watch in the away team will be Algeria international Andy Delort, who has been scoring goals for fun in all competitions this season.

Highlighted Team (Montpellier):
Over the years Montpellier have established themselves as a mid-table side in French Ligue 1. Montpellier are considered one of the youngest clubs in France as they were founded in 1974, but it has to be noted that a number of high-profile footballers played for the club in the past. French football legend Laurent Blanc played for Montpellier from 1981-1993 and he scored 76 goals in 24 appearances in the league for the club. Eric Cantona, Roger Milla, Carlos Valderama and Olivier Giroud played in Montpellier’s colors as well, but Pascal Baills is the player with most appearances for the club (429).
La Paillade did remarkably well to win the Ligue 1 trophy in 2012 and that is considered the club’s biggest success. Montpellier won Coupe de France on two occasions (1929, 1990), with the team beating FC Sete and FC Paris respectively in the title games. The team welcome their rivals at Stade de la Mosson and the capacity of the stadium is 32.900. In 1999 Montpellier won the UEFA Intertoto Cup.
