This Tuesday evening, Jean-Marc Furlan will be in front of his television, leaving his assistants to supervise his future opponent on Friday in the stands of Charléty. "I take care of my team's football," smiles the Auxerre coach. Between Paris FC and Sochaux, I have no preference. Either way, we know it will be very difficult for us. They are two antinomic teams, completely different, but two teams of very good level and which are very difficult to maneuver. Between the two, it looks tight, there is no favorite. »

This is also the opinion of Didier Tholot, the coach of Pau. “In recent weeks, Sochaux has been on an upward phase and Paris FC a little tight with all its injuries. Sochaux is very well organized and can hurt at any time offensively. The PFC have taken a lot of goals lately, they lost Kanté. But he is regaining all his offensive potential, so it can be balanced. He also has a little more bench depth, unlike Sochaux, that can make the difference if the match lasts. »
