Le Mans
Le Mans quietly slipped into the top 16 of the tournament due to an extremely favorable draw. In the Round of 64 of the French Cup, they faced a very weak club Marmande, which they defeated 7-0. And in the Round of 32, their opponent was a representative of League 3, with whom Le Mans played on equal terms and won after a penalty shootout. But considering that even in their own championship this team is only in sixth place, it is unlikely they are ready to compete with opponents of higher caliber.

Paris Saint-Germain
The Parisians have gotten into the swing of things in terms of creation and are thrashing almost all their opponents. In four of the last six matches, the Ligue 1 leader scored at least four goals, and Luis Enrique’s side’s unbeaten run has already reached 14 matches. And it seems that even the team’s reserves are so well prepared that they can secure them a spot in the quarterfinals.
