Lille and Lyon square off in the Coupe de France last-32 in what promises to be one of the round’s standout ties. However, we predict a 1-1 draw as both sides are likely to adopt a cautious approach. Lille will be without suspended defender Alexsandro, but Paulo Fonseca’s side have enough depth to compensate, especially at home where they have been difficult to break down. Statistically, les Dogues have been very reliable at home, collecting 2.25 points per game and winning 75% of recent matches at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy. They average 3.25 goals per home match, scoring 2.25 themselves.
Les Gones, meanwhile, are high on confidence after an impressive 3-1 league win over Monaco, and with no fresh injury concerns. Paulo Fonseca is expected to keep a strong core for this knockout test. Lyon's defence has improved markedly, conceding just 0.80 goals per game overall with 50% clean sheets. Away from home, however, they still look inconsistent. Both Fofana and Nuamah are sidelined with injuries for the visiting side.
This matchup could be tighter than expected, with Lille’s home strength tested by Lyon’s momentum. Taking everything into account, BTTS seems like a sure bet, with additional value on Draw and Half-Time Draw.
This Coupe de France match will be played on Sunday 11 January 2026 at 20:00.
