In a match postponed from Saturday evening by a blizzard, Lens, who have never won the French Cup, rested only veteran midfielder Florian Thauvin against opponents who have won the competition twice.

Odsonne Edouard gave Lens a 22nd minute lead but the visitors only locked up a ninth consecutive victory in all competitions with goals from Matthieu Udol in the 87th minute and Abdallah Sima in the 89th.
