A few weeks after a draw in the league (1-1), Stade de Reims and AS Monaco meet for a 100% Ligue 1 display in these round of 16 of the Coupe de France. A match between two teams which are going through a rather delicate period. While the Rémois are stuck in the soft underbelly of the ranking, the Principality club has clearly stalled at the top of the table.
But the context of a decisive match always eclipses the photograph of a ranking. The charm of the cup should work on Tuesday. “We are always under pressure, this is nothing new, noted Adi Hütter. Reims is a knockout match in this Coupe de France. We are going to face an elite team, which requires more concentration and application than what we were able to show in the first half in Nantes. We have to be ready from the kick-off against them, because sometimes small details can be decisive, and we absolutely want to qualify for the next round. » The tone is set.
The expected compositions
Reims : Diouf – Buta, Kipré, Okumu, Akieme – Atangana, Munetsi – Ito, Teuma, Nakamura – Diakité.
Monaco : Lienard (or Köhn) – Singa, Kehrer, Salisu – Teze, Magassa, Zakaria, Caio Henrique – Bouabré, Ben Seghir – Biereth.
