This Tuesday at 12h was the draw for the round of 16 of the Coupe de France. The "little ones" still in contention, residents of DH, CPB Rennes Bréquigny and SF Orvault had the "chance" to shoot two formations of the elite. Also note the two shocks between D2 and the very tempting PSG - Juvisy. Focus on the draw.


PSG vs. Juvisy: Certainly the most beautiful poster of these eighths. The second PSG in the league, will receive his neighbor Juvisy, currently fourth in D1. During their league match on December 5, Paris St-Germain easily emerged as the winner of the showdown. Final score 5 goals to 0 with achievements of Horan, Mittag x2, Cristiane and Hamraoui. Let's hope for the Juv 'that the magic of the cup makes its effect. But it is the PSG that will be favorite in this shock of the draw.


VGA Saint-Maur vs. Girondins de Bordeaux: One of the most awaited matches. If the VGA is in delicacy in the league, the air of the cup succeeds them for the moment well. In front of them, the Bordelaise surprise. Indeed, the Girondines still in the race for the rise in their pool B of D2, managed to eliminate two formations of the elite during the two previous rounds! This weekend, Sabrina Barbe et al. Beat Sabrina Barbe and the others at the end of the suspense (2-1) against La Roche-sur-Yon, scoring their two goals in the last five minutes of the game. The VGA will therefore need the greatest concentration if the club wants to enforce the logic and join the quarter-finals. For Bordeaux as they say, never two without three?


SF Orvault vs. Olympique Lyonnais: The Tom Thumb against the ogre Lyonnais. The poster is beautiful for the honor division club. Although there is very little chance of seeing a real duel between the two teams in OL playing in another galaxy this season. Leader of D1, Lyon had won the competition last season by beating Montpellier in the final. For Orvault, the challenge is daunting, but it promises a great party with the announced presence of Rhodanian President Jean-Michel Aulas during the meeting. Orvault to achieve the feat!


Dijon vs Grenoble-Claix: One of two shocks of D2. Both teams play in the same group and are both on the podium alongside Olympique Marseille. In the last league match, the teams also clashed on the side of Dijon. And the shock has turned to the advantage of Grenoble as in the first leg. An essential 2-0 victory in the climb race. With his fatal and attacking weapon, Laury Jesus, Grenoble remains the big favorite for this eighth. In Dijon to beat the prognoses!
