Lyon and Metz will face each other in the Round of 64 of the 2022-23 France Cup which will be broadcast live streaming on Saturday, January 07, 2023 at Groupama Stadium Stadium, Décines-Charpieu. After both being eliminated in the last 64 in the Coupe de France last season, Lyon and Metz will try to continue their stride this season.
Olympique Lyonnais is preparing to host Metz in an injured condition after losing 0-1 at home to Clermont in the game earlier in the year. This was the first defeat suffered by Laurent Blanc’s camp after previously unbeaten in two consecutive league matches – drawing 1-1 with Nice and winning 4-2 over Brest.
Failing to add points made the home side slip to eighth place in the Ligue 1 standings, 20 points behind PSG, who topped the standings.
Under these conditions, mathematically the Coupe de France competition provides a bigger chance for Lyon to be able to lift the trophy this season. Moreover, Les Gones has won five championships in this competition, most recently in the 2011-2012 season.
Last season, Lyon could not continue the step to the round of 32. Together with Paris FC, Lyon was disqualified after a riot broke out between fans watching live at the stadium.
Meanwhile, Metz failed to continue his struggle last season after being defeated by Bergerac Perigord on penalties in the round of 64. Meanwhile this season, the second division club managed to challenge Lyon after defeating Raon L Etape 2-1 and Epinal 1-0.
For Metz, this is an opportunity to add to his collection of Coupe de France trophies which he has won twice, even though the last victory was recorded in 1988. Moreover, Metz’ arrival this time was preceded by two positive results in a row, drawing with Niort and winning 1- 0 over Grenoble in Ligue 2.
Moreover, Les Grenats are unbeaten in the last three head-to-head meetings against Lyon. To smooth their way, Laszlo Boloni’s side must try to repeat their slick performance like when they beat Lyon 3-2 in the last h2h meeting in May 2022.
