The meeting had been relocated to Décines-Charpieu (Métropole de Lyon), the Savoyard club not having an approved stadium, nor a fallback solution.
A week after suffering the revolt of a fringe of ultra supporters, following the home defeat against Strasbourg (2-1), in Ligue 1, the Lyonnais, without Romain Faivre or Karl Toko Ekambi, absent from the group and awaiting departure, took shelter in the first period thanks to a double from Lacazette.
The latter twice took over a service from the Brazilian Tetê, after two good collective actions, to bring the score to 2-0 (11th, 33rd).
Totally dominated, the Chambériens were however threatening on a shot from Jordan Scarantino repelled by goalkeeper Anthony Lopes (36).
In the second half, Chambéry attempted a reaction, but Lacazette scored a third goal as the hat-trick, after good work from Bradley Barcola (3-0, 67'), thus ensuring OL's qualification for good.
Note, on the Chambéry side, the entry in the 63rd minute of Nassim Akrour, 48, ex-Grenoble striker and former Algerian international.
