In the quarter-finals of the Coupe de la Ligue, Lyon and Marseille, two in-form teams, are set to clash at Gerland. This marquee matchup features the two football powerhouses in France, separated by only four points in the league standings (Marseille in 5th, Lyon in 9th). Both teams have had a promising start to 2014, qualifying for the Coupe de France 1/16 finals and securing victories in the league over the weekend.
While Marseille considers the league as their top priority, the quarter-final in the League Cup against Lyon compels the club to approach the competition with seriousness. Benjamin Mendy emphasized the importance of this objective for the club, framing it as a challenge for everyone. The players are focused on the prospect of reaching the Stade de France, recognizing the potential for a quick progression in the competition. The goal is to go all the way and make a significant impact.
