# 2024–25 Coupe de France

The 2024–25 Coupe de France is the 108th season of the main football cup competition of France. The competition was organised by the French Football Federation (FFF) and is open to all clubs in French football, as well as clubs from the overseas departments and territories (Guadeloupe, French Guiana, Martinique, Mayotte, Tahiti, Réunion, Saint Martin, and Saint Pierre and Miquelon).

### Round 7 teams

The 155 qualified clubs from the 6th round are joined by the 18 Ligue 2 clubs as well as the overseas representatives of Mayotte and Tahiti. Due to the riots and its consequences, no club from New Caledonia participated in this edition.
Of the two overseas clubs entering the 7th round, only the club representing Tahiti, AS Dragon, plays at home against a mainland club according to the rule of biannual alternation (Métropole/Outre-Mer), the Mayotte representative, Diables Noirs, must travel to mainland France, Mayotte not having an approved stadium to host this type of meeting.

#### Overseas teams

A draw to determine the club which travels to Tahiti in Round 7, and then French Guiana, and Réunion in Round 8 takes place from a list of candidate clubs from mainland France, having expressed the wish to travel overseas while the Mayotte club is included in the main draw. Should an allocated team be knocked out in Round 7, the draw will move down the list to the next team, and this team will travel overseas. Overseas teams can only play one match at home against a mainland team, should they advance from Round 8 they will have to travel to France for the later rounds. The draw took place on 29 October 2024.
