FC Bourg-Peronnas take on Marseille at the Marcel-Verchere Stadium on Sunday in the Coupe de France's Round of 64.
This is an extremely tough task for third tier side FC Bourg-Peronnas, as they are faced with a side currently contending for the Ligue 1 title. So will it be an upset, or business as usual this weekend?
FC Bourg-Peronnas vs Marseille Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
- Interestingly, these two sides have faced off in the Coupe de France on three occasions in the past. All three, unsurprisingly, saw Marseille come out on top, with the most notable game taking place in February 2018, with Marseille winning 0-9.
- FC Bourg-Peronnas have beaten two teams to make it this far into the Coupe de France this season. They knocked out Atlas Paillade 0-2, and then defeated IS Selongey 2-3. This match will be their first one at home in this competiiton.
- Marseille made it as far as the Coupe de France's Round of 32 last season, where they were beaten by Lille on penalties. They have not won the Coupe de France since the 1988-89 season, and will be hoping to change that this time around.
- FC Bourg-Peronnas' league form has been appalling this season, as they have only won two of their ten matches thus far. They did win their most recent match, beating FC Villefranche-Beaujolais, but it was their first victory in six.
- Marseille's last match saw them beat Monaco, and overall, they have won five of their last seven to sit in 3rd place in the current Ligue 1 table.
FC Bourg-Peronnas vs Marseille Prediction
While upsets in the Coupe de France at this stage of the competition are possible, this one looks like a very unlikely candidate for a surprise result.
Marseille are one of the favourites to win this competiiton, as Roberto de Zerbi's side are free-scoring, don't concede too many goals, and have beaten giants like PSG, Newcastle and Monaco this season.
Therefore, the clear prediction here is an away win.
Prediction: FC Bourg-Peronnas 0-4 Marseille
