French Cup Preview

PSG will be back in action on Friday evening, as they look to regain the French Cup. The Parisians last won this competition in the 2020-21 season, as they landed their 14th honour. However, they will certainly have questions to answer this weekend, as they were beaten for the first time domestically in their previous fixture. PSG was beaten 3-1 away from home against Lens on New Year’s Day, which saw their unbeaten record in France come to an end. Their lead at the top of the Ligue 1 standings remains a healthy one, but a second straight defeat could lead to questions surrounding the manager. But, the Parisians have been dominant throughout recent history at this stage of the competition. This will be a big moment in the history of Chateauroux, as they welcome PSG to town for the French Cup tie. They currently sit 14th in National, after winning just four of their 16 games this term. Their form over their previous five games has been sketchy to say the least, as they haven’t won over that period. However, they came through the previous round in excellent fashion, as they beat Lege-Cap-Ferret 4-1 away from home. Florian Bianchini, Ferris N’Goma, and Celal Bozkurt were among the scorers in that win. Their best-ever showing in the competition came in 2003-04, as they were beaten in the final by PSG.

Chateauroux vs PSG Head to Head

The only previous competitive meeting between the sides came in the 2004 French Cup final. On that occasion, PSG claimed victory following Pedro Pauleta’s strike with just 25 minutes remaining.

Chateauroux vs PSG Prediction

This should be a testing fixture on the road for PSG, but it remains extremely difficult to see past the reigning French champions. PSG look to be the best bet to win this game, and they could claim a 3-0 win on the road. Make sure to bet on Chateauroux vs PSG with 22Bet!"

Europa Conference League qualifying action takes place on Thursday, as AZ Alkmaar look to compete in a European competition for the second straight campaign. They will come up against Portuguese side Gil Vicente in Thursday’s first leg.

 

Europa Conference League Playoff Preview

AZ Alkmaar will be looking to make their home advantage count in the first meeting between the sides this season. The second leg is schedule for next week, but the Dutch outfit could take the tie away from their opponents with a commanding success. The Dutch side entered the competition in the second qualifying round this term, but they easily made it through their tie against Tuzla City, with a 1-0 home success and 4-0 win away from home.

AZ were made to work in the third qualifying round, as they were beaten in Scotland by Dundee United in the first leg. However, they bounced back very impressively from that defeat, as they hammered the SPL side 7-0 in the second leg. Vangelis Pavidis and Tijani Reijnders both scored twice in the win, while further goals were added by Hakon Evjen, Dani de Wit and Mayckel Lahdo.

Gil Vicente are chasing a historic season this term, as they look to build on their best recent showing in the Portuguese top-flight with a solid campaign in Europe. They have been steady throughout qualifying to this point, as they managed to see off Riga in the previous round.

The sides played out a 1-1 draw in the first leg, before Vicente made their advantage count back on home soil with a dominant 4-0 success in the second leg. Fran Navarro scored twice in a famous night for the club, while Kevin Villodres was also on the scoresheet for the Portuguese side.

AZ Alkmaar vs Gil Vicente Head to Head

This is a first professional meeting between the two sides. The main reason for that is down to the limited experience that Vicente has in European competition.

AZ Alkmaar vs Gil Vicente Prediction

The first leg looks to be pivotal towards both sides and their chances of reaching the Europa Conference League group stages this season. Vicente will need to keep things tight defensively to give themselves the best chance of progression, while AZ will be looking to pick up from where they left off against Dundee. Due to their strong home record, AZ look the best bet to win the fixture.
