Match Preview
FC Rouen:Underdogs but not outmatched: Despite being a lower-division team, Rouen has already caused a major upset by knocking out defending champions Toulouse on penalties in the previous round. They will be riding a wave of confidence and know that anything is possible on home soil.Recent struggles: However, Rouen's league form hasn't been ideal, having lost their last two matches, conceding two goals in each. They'll need to tighten up defensively if they want to pull off another surprise.
AS Monaco:Favored on paper: Monaco, currently sitting 5th in Ligue 1, are the clear favorites on paper. They boast a talented squad with experienced players like Wissam Ben Yedder and Aleksandr Golovin.Inconsistency a concern: However, Monaco haven't been at their best recently, drawing their last league match and struggling away from home, losing their last three away fixtures.

Goaloo9 Prediction
While Monaco is undoubtedly the stronger team on paper, the magic of the cup always holds the possibility of an upset. Rouen's home advantage and Monaco's recent away struggles make this a closer contest than many might expect. However, Monaco's superior quality should ultimately shine through.

Pick: Monaco
