Olympique Lyonnais receives Grenoble in the quarter-finals of the Coupe de France, Tuesday, February 28. Struggling in Ligue 1, Laurent Blanc’s men seem out of the race for Europe. Victory in the Coupe de France, synonymous with qualification in Europa League, could well become the main objective of the Lyonnais this season, while the Parisian scarecrow fell in the previous round.
After defeating Lille at Groupama Stadium (2-2, 4-2 tab), OL inherited a rather favorable draw on paper. However, the Grenoble neighbors, seventh in Ligue 2 and Vierzon (Nationale 2) scorers in the previous round (1-0), are determined to achieve the feat in the capital of Gaul.
