Struggling in Ligue 2, SM Caen, owned by Kylian Mbappé, hopes to go as far as possible in the Coupe de France. New stage this Saturday with the reception of fans from Bolbec. A simple formality for the Calvados stable? At what time and on which TV channel to watch this match live? Explanations.
It's a match that has already caused a lot of discussion, well before kick-off. Bolbec, resident of Régional 1, was delighted to host a professional club, SM Caen, in the eighth round of the Coupe de France. Problem is, the amateur club is located in Seine-Maritime, around thirty kilometers from Le Havre, SMC's great rival. Under these conditions, a reversal was made in the middle of the week.
Stade Malherbe de Caen, fourteenth in Ligue 2 after fourteen days, only has a small point lead over the first relegation and a possible descent to the National. Suffice it to say that the club bought by world champion Kylian Mbappé just a few weeks ago could bet everything on the Championship. Nevertheless, the opportunity is too good to join the 32nd finals, and potentially challenge a Ligue 1 team. Like the good old days.
For its part, Bolbec counted on home advantage to create the feat. It won't happen. The amateurs, who play one division lower than… the Caen reserve team, also have some support to look for. However, over 90 minutes or more, they hope to be carried by the atmosphere to compete with the pros for as long as possible. Will they succeed?
At what time and on which TV channel to watch Caen – Bolbec?
The eighth round match of the Coupe de France between the Stade Malherbe in Caen and Bolbec will take place this Saturday, November 30, 2024. The kick-off will be given at the Michel-d'Ornano stadium in Caen, the match having been reversed, we said it. As has already been the case during friendly matches, SMC will broadcast the match live on its YouTube channel.
