On Wednesday night, Marseille host Strasbourg in the last 16 of the French Cup, as both sides eye a place in the last eight of the competition.

Marseille have a mixed recent record in this competition, winning just two of their last four matches in normal time. They have at least kept three clean sheets in their last four cup games.
OM have a mixed recent record in the French Cup on home soil, winning two, drawing one and losing one of their last five matches. Marseille have been relatively prolific at home in the cup though, scoring at least two goals in four of their last six matches.
Strasbourg have been on an inconsistent run of form of late, winning just one of their last seven games in all competitions.
The visitors have endured mixed fortunes in the French Cup of late too, as they have won two, lost two and drawn one of their last five outings.
Strasbourg have a decent recent away record in this competition, winning four of their last six games on their travels. Their recent away games in the competition have been low scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in five of their last six matches.
