Cannes vs Guingamp Prediction: Hosts could produce shock

At least one team from outside the French top flight will make it through to the Coupe de France semi-finals as fourth-tier Cannes host Ligue 2 side Guingamp in what should be an engrossing affair.

Here, we pick out the best bets for this crucial Coupe de France quarter-final clash, which kicks off at 20:00 on Tuesday and will be played at the Stade Pierre-de-Coubertin in Cannes.

Team News

Cannes will lean heavily on Julien Domingues as he has amassed nine goals in five Coupe de France games so far this season, while he has notched 11 in 15 in the league. He will be crucial to the hosts’ hopes of progressing.

Guingamp striker Jacques Siwe featured from the bench against Grenoble last time out after recovering from an abductor injury and will be pushing to start this cup clash as a result.

Cannes vs Guingamp Odds

Guingamp have been installed as 23/20 favourites for the victory, giving them an implied win probability of 46.5%, while Cannes are 9/4 outsiders and the draw is available at 2/1.

Over 2.5 goals is on offer at 10/11, while both teams to score is priced at 8/11 and it is 7/4 for over 1.5 goals in the first half.

Cannes to win @ 2/1

Cannes is better known for its film festival than its football team but they could produce a Hollywood storyline by getting the better of Guingamp to reach the last four of the Coupe de France.

The fourth-tier team have been in rock-solid form recently, going unbeaten in their last 17 games in all competitions, and they have been particularly strong at home, winning seven of their last eight games at Stade Pierre-de-Coubertin in all competitions.

That includes three wins in previous rounds of the cup against Ligue 2 teams Grenoble and Lorient as well as fifth-tier outfit Dives-Cabourg.

They next face a Guingamp team who have stumbled recently, winning just one of their last four league games and suffering defeats against Metz and Paris FC.

The visitors were held to a 1-1 draw by Grenoble at the weekend and may struggle to get the better of this Cannes side. A big shock could be on the cards and the hosts are fancied to get the victory.

Both teams to score @ 8/11

One thing that does look certain in this game is that it should be entertaining. Both teams have scored in eight of Cannes’ last nine matches and a repeat of that is fancied in what should be a cracking cup tie.

Guingamp have netted 15 times in five cup games this season and they can certainly contribute to the goal tally with only leaders Lorient have scored more than them in Ligue 2 so far this term.
