Dijon, with their established pedigree in Ligue 2, will be looking to advance further in the competition, but they cannot afford to underestimate their opponents.

Match Insights
1. Defensive Discipline from Chambéry
Chambéry will need to stay disciplined and compact defensively. Their defensive unit will have to be well-organized to deal with the attacking threat of Dijon, especially their pace and width.
2. Midfield Control by Dijon
Dijon will seek to dominate possession in midfield, with Johan Gastien and David Llorente working hard to dictate the tempo. If Chambéry allows them to dominate in the middle, it could be a long night for them.
3. Counter-Attack for Chambéry
The only way Chambéry will trouble Dijon is through quick counter-attacks, so Pierre-Alexandre Bellamy and Julien Lemoine will need to be on their toes to convert any opportunities that come their way.
