Lorient hosts Lens in the final round-of-16 match of the French Cup. Sitting third in the French league standings, Lens will be missing several players, either injured or suspended, including forward Wesley Saïd (knee) and center-back Kevin Danso (suspended). Lorient won the French Cup in 2002 while Lens is chasing its first win in the competition after ending runner-up three times.
