One of the biggest rivalries in France adds another chapter this weekend. Lyon and PSG meet in the French Cup finals, which take place in Lille this year.

Coupe de France Finals: Lyon vs. PSG Preview

Lyon

Lyon started the season poorly, and they looked really bad. At one point, the fans were protesting because the team was at the bottom of French Ligue 1, on the path to relegation.

Though, several transfers and a few solid performances created a huge momentum in the second part of the year that saw the Kids skyrocketing in the standings and significantly improving their form. For instance, Lyon has only one defeat in the last 11 meetings, winning on nine occasions and posting one tie.

They emphasize fast football with plenty of chances for scoring, so it is no wonder that they are one of the most efficient teams in Europe since March. For instance, seven games over those eleven mentioned saw them netting at least three times.

PSG

Kylian Mbappe wants to win the trophy in his last game in PSG’s kit. He already received a warm farewell party at Parc des Princes, and it seems that he and the fans split ways in the best possible way. That’s why No.10 wants to honor the supporters and the Saints as well, with another trophy.

PSG’s elimination in the UEFA Champions League semis has been a terrible experience for them. Virtually no one expected to see the Millionaires triumphing in both events, and what is even more strange is that the French unit couldn’t score a single goal.

Seven of the last 10 games this team played saw three or more goals, but just a few noticed that until the most recent contest, 0-2 vs. Metz on the road, PSG couldn’t keep a clean sheet in 10 straight events.
