The clear favorite role of fourth place in Ligue 1 is by no means surprising, after all, the home side are currently in a form crisis. Red Star FC recently failed to win six games in a row in the French third division, so "L’Étoile rouge" lost their good starting position in the promotion campaign. In addition, the capital club also lost the dress rehearsal before the cup game.

Nevertheless, the green-whites go into the cup game against Lyon with a broad chest. In the last round, Red Star was able to eliminate a club from Ligue 1, and as a major outsider, the capital club has nothing to lose against the "Gones" from Lyon.
