Metz are one of the Ligue 1 outsiders in this season as the side managed to get one victory and six losses in the elite division. Last gameweek “Les Grenats” were beaten 0:1 by Troyes at the home pitch. After seven matches played, Metz settle on the 20th place in the standings with three points earned and 3-13 goal difference. The team picked up three points with one goal for and three goals against in three clashes on the road. Metz establish their football basing on defense, still, they have not succeeded in it so far.
The rivals have met 11 times since the 19th of October 2009, having recorded one triumph in favour of each side and nine draws in them. Besides, most of their battles ended with under scored goals. This season both opponents show low effectiveness in offense, thus, not many goals should be expected in the upcoming head-to-head as well.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 scored goals.
