Grenoble to Win
Vierzon are the lowest-ranked team left in the Coupe de France and National 2’s bottom club have been lucky enough to avoid facing tough opponents to this juncture in the tournament. However, a clash with Ligue 2’s promotion-hopefuls, Grenoble, could be a bridge too far for the minnows on Wednesday. Grenoble have won four of their last five assignments and with a head of steam pushing them on, they should be able to make their superior quality count in midweek. With that in mind, our first prediction tips Grenoble to come out on top.
Under 2.5 Goals
Grenoble are solid performers, though they rarely cut loose in the final third and as a consequence, many of their matches are low-scoring affairs. Indeed six of the seven fixtures they’ve contested since Christmas have featured under 2.5 goals and a similar outcome could be in the works when they visit Vierzon on Wednesday. In addition, Vierzon have notched one or fewer goals in six of their last eight games, so don’t expect fireworks in this one.

Vierzon vs Grenoble Team News & Injuries
Read all of the latest injury updates and team news for Wednesday’s Coupe de France meeting between Vierzon and Grenoble below.
Vierzon
Vierzon needed penalty kicks to eliminate Le Puy Foot in the previous round of the competition. Their Head Coach Davy Merabti likes to deploy his troops in a 3-4-3 formation, with striker Koumae N'Gussen leading the line and flanked either side by Karl Fabien and Ibrahim Camara.
Predicted Lineup for Vierzon: Nidaye – Ben Aicha, Medard, Kone – Bonyonya, Salibur – N'Guessan, Diagne – Fabien, Camara, N'Guessan
Grenoble
Grenoble moved up to fourth spot in Ligue 2 at the weekend when they enjoyed a 2-0 win at Nimes. Promotion is on the cards for the club, if they can maintain their strong form. Grenoble usually play in a 4-1-4-1 shape under manager Vincent Hognon, though they might be a little more adventurous in midweek.
Predicted Lineup for Grenoble: Maubleu – Gapsar, Monfray, Tchaptchet, Paquiez – Bambock, Sanyang, Touray, Benet, Phaeton – Tell
Player to Watch – Matthias Phaeton
Grenoble attacker Matthias Phaeton scored at the weekend in his team’s 2-0 win at Nimes and the 23-year-old should have a kick in his step on Wednesday as a result. Phaeton has managed to find the net in each of his last two away appearances in the league and he should be among the visitor’s most-threatening players again in midweek.
Starting Lineups
Official lineups are usually released approximately one hour before kick-off.
