The home side battled past Les Herbiers in the last round, while their visitors just about edged out Caen to set up this weekend's encounter.
Match preview
Le Havre came away victorious from a thrilling clash against lower league side Caen at Stade Oceane on January 7, which ended in a 2-1 triumph.
Luka Elsner's men broke the deadlock through Antoine Joujou but were pegged back by Godson Kyeremeh before Daler Kuzyaev grabbed the winner two minutes shy of half time.
This preceded a 3-1 victory against Olympique Lyon on Sunday, which saw Le Club Doyen move up to 11th in the Ligue 1 table, outside the top half only on goal difference.
Lying in store next is the challenge of an opposing outfit with little to choose between the teams over the last seven meetings which have yielded three wins apiece and one draw.
Currently with just one win in 13 matches away from home leading up to Sunday's game, the visitors have work to do at both ends of the pitch to avoid another fruitless outing on the road.
Chateauroux needed penalties to see off the threat of Les Herbiers after a highly-entertaining 2-2 draw at Stade Massabielle on January 6.
Olivier Saragaglia's men trailed to Antoine Mille's opener but managed to turn the game on its head thanks to a Jeremy Billy double, only for Vincent Pires to restore parity late on and send the tie to a shootout where Geoffray Durbant held his nerve to convert the decisive spot-kick.
La Berrichonne were on the receiving end of a narrow 1-0 defeat to Nancy in their subsequent league outing and remain 16th in the French National League.
Looking for what would be only a second home win in eight matches, Sunday's hosts have endured a torrid time in front of their fans of late and will need to turn their fortunes around.
