Re: Coupe de France > February 10th - 12th Red Star vs Saint-Etienne Red Star, for many unknown club, was actually won this competition five times (only one less than Saint-Etienne), also they have recently been known for the quality of youth academy (sounds unbelievable, but no less than five players at the 2014 World Cup had played in the club's youth teams). They won't play in their stadium, but at Stade Jean Bouin and I expect they will have the support of all 20 thousand fans (considering that their ambitious president wanted this game to be played at Stade de France and because Saint-Étienne will be without their travelling contingent for this game). Red Star is in great shape and have a nice opportunity to reach the Ligue 2, which is their main goal this season, but certainly won't overlook this game despite playing a Capital derby on Saturday. Coach Sebastien Robert can't count on the second best scorer D. Bellion (ex Man Utd and Bordeaux player), but the rest of the experienced team (Hameur Bouazza is a key player) is fit and rested cause they haven't played a game in the last round. On the other side, ASSE is in bad shape, haven't had a break last weekend and will play a very important away game against Bordeaux in the struggle for fourth place on Sunday. Christophe Galtier's men played as many eight games (without a win in the last six) this year and it's a problem for them because there are a lot of injured players. Clerc, Gradel, Pogba and Diomande are a long-term injuries, while Sall, Cohade, Corgnet and Monnet-Paque are this year's absents. In addition to all these, the team will be weakened for a key midfielder Lemoine due to suspension, so expect a few U19 players in the away line-up. No doubt, Saint-Etienne, in spite of all these facts, is the favorite for the next round - but the value is still on the home side. Red Star +0,5 @2.32 with Pinnacle

Re: Coupe de France > February 10th - 12th I don't have time to write more in the moment, but Rennais is the best option today (after research I believe that PSG and Guingamp will have a much easier job than Monaco) if you're looking for the best value. I don't have the courage after yesterday's failure, good luck.

Re: Coupe de France > February 10th - 12th Metz v Brest is an interesting one. Metz are very dour, with little penetration, but they can be exceptionally difficult to break down. Even though they are from the higher league, I expect them to end up in defensive mode against Brest, who are a sophisticated team with excellent attackers. I have noticed that a lot of these cup games are going to extra time, so I reckon the best bet here might be the drawn result at normal time.

Re: Coupe de France > February 10th - 12th METZ - BREST Brest to win or draw at 1.69 @ Marathonbet The two teams are divided by a whole category, but in realistic terms their difference is not that big. Metz lies at the 20th (last) place of Ligue 1, ignoring the win at its last 13 league game and being without a single goal at its 5/6 last league games. Brest, on the other hand, is at the 2nd place of Ligue 2 and has many chances of promotion to France's top flight. I think that the away team will gain the qualification at quarter-finals either at normal time or extra time. In conclusion... Brest to win or draw.

Re: Coupe de France > February 10th - 12th Metz vs Brest The draw is already completed, so the winner of this match will be hosted Auxerre (7th in the Ligue 2) in the quarterfinals. As you said, in theory - only two places separate L1's bottom club Metz from L2's second-placed side Brest, the far east side against the far west side. Nevertheless, Metz won Ligue 2 last year when they were twenty points ahead of Brest whom they defeated both times without conceding a goal then (3:0, 1:0). Let's get back into the present when both teams are in bad shape and when league points are much needed for both of them. So this competition is certainly not the main the priority, but the placement in the quarterfinals would bring desirable and necessary confidence and optimism before their decisive matches of the season. Metz lost the second consecutive away game with identical result (0:2) and for the same reason (early red card, both times by the same player lol). Coach Albert Cartier decided to rest a couple of defensive starters tonight (Bussmann and N'Daw) and in a squad will be neither suspended duo (Sarr and Milan), nor the most experienced player Malouda due to injury. Good news is that two midfielders (Ikaunieks and Sassi) will debut, while another midfielder Doukouré, fresh from winning AFCON 2015 with the Côte d'Ivoire, is tipped to return to action. On the other hand, Brest played the last game on Monday, so they had two days off less prior to this meeting. Then they defeated even though they had the lead at half time, also lost two points in the previous game having conceded a goal in injury time. So we can say that their moral and mental strength is not at the required level, and that they are more tired than tonight's host. Coach Alex Dupont can count on defender Miombe (who is back from suspension), but still there are three injured key players: Alphonse (top scorer), Grougi (2nd best scorer) and Beloud (key midfielder). Their only hope may be a few new players who have recently arrived at the club, but I'm not convinced of that so I recommend... Metz 0 @1.60 with Pinnacle Metz -0,5 @2.40 with Pinnacle Metz to nil @3.40 with Paddy Power draw / Metz @5.50 with William Hill
