For its entry into contention in the Coupe de France, LOSC was rather spared by avoiding Ligue 1 clubs present in its “geographic” pool. However, Bruno Genesio's men will have to be careful against FC Rouenresident of National.
A short trip to Normandy
Unlike neighboring Lens, which will start off with a bang with a match against PSG, LOSC will have the right to a rather lenient entry into the running, against FC Rouen. Twelfth in National 2, the Norman club is now coached by Régis Brouard, who has already had great adventures in this competition.
The match will take place at the Robert Diochon stadium on the weekend of December 21 and 22.
