The 2017–18 Coupe de la Ligue was the 24th edition of the French league cup competition. The winners of the league cup earned a place in the 2018–19 Europa League starting in the second qualifying round.[1] Forty-four clubs participated in the competition.[2]

Paris Saint-Germain were the four-time defending champions after winning the cup in the previous four seasons, and they won a fifth consecutive title and eighth title overall by defeating Monaco 3–0 in the final.[3]

First round

[edit]

Eleven first round matches were played on 8 August 2017.[4] The twelfth scheduled match was awarded to Nancy as a walkover after Bastia had their professional status removed by the FFF, and thereby did not qualify to participate according to the rules of the competition.[5]
