The upcoming round of the French Cup match between Espaly and PSG will be played on Wednesday at the "Stade Marcel-Michelin." I suggest betting on the goals in this game with good winning chances.
Match Preview
Espaly is currently in 11th place in the French National Third Division and is clearly not aiming for high achievements in the league. However, the team has shown confident performances in the French Cup, advancing through three stages to face such a formidable opponent.
To reach this stage, Espaly defeated Biarritz-Bretenoux (1-0) and Couze-Chaptel (3-0), keeping clean sheets in both matches. In a tougher match against Dijon, despite the opponent receiving a red card, Espaly conceded first but equalized in the 73rd minute. The spot in the next round was ultimately decided by a penalty shootout.
PSG has been in excellent form in 2025. In January, Luis Enrique's side secured the French Super Cup, beating Monaco in a dramatic match decided in the 92nd minute. Dembele was the hero of the game, and the victory extended PSG's winning streak to five matches.
They extended it to six over the weekend, hosting Ligue 1 strugglers Saint-Étienne. Luis Enrique's team had no issues, securing a 2-1 win. PSG confidently leads the league, seven points clear of Marseille. Interestingly, they advanced past Lens in the French Cup only after a penalty shootout.
Probable Lineups
- Espaly: Etienne, Mezaber, Uzun, Court, Bendriss, Alladger, Guychi, Boulalam, Portal, Russo, Fornel
