Metz hosts Paris Saint-Germain in round 4 of French Ligue 1. The match will be played on Friday, August 30th at Stade Municipal Saint-Symphorien (Metz)
After a very short break, Metz returned to Ligue 1. In the last season, the team received a promotion in the class from the first place. At the same time, Metz left all its leaders, and as the practice has shown, you can gain a foothold in Ligue 1 with such a squad. In the first round, Metz managed to win back in the away match against Strasbourg. It was the match against the holder of the League Cup, and it was played after the break. But it did not bother Metz, and the team got the first points, although the opponent was already warmed up by the match in the Europa League. It’s not clear how seriously Monaco needs to be taken. Such a team continues to amaze the public with its results. Nevertheless, Metz managed to hammer the Monegasques with a 3-0 score at home. The referee helped a lot, who first awarded a penalty kick in the goal of Monaco and showed a red card one of the visitors then. In the last round, Metz lost to Angers with a crushing 3:0 score. The home team scored two quick goals, played on the counterattacks and scored the third. It is still difficult for Metz to play attack first, but this skill certainly will not be useful in the upcoming game.

You can fight with such PSG in this season. Moreover, injuries simply beat Tuchel’s team. To begin with, the team did not find a common language with the coach. The fans are outraged by the saga with Neymar and simultaneously fight against the Minister of Sports of France. Against this background, PSG was meltdown in the away game against Rennes and lost. In the last match, injuries finished off the team of Tuchel. It left without Cavani for four weeks, without Mbappe for three. Neymar will probably not play, and the team has not bought a replacement for him yet. No Diallo, no Draxler and Herrera. And who remains? Those who played in the second half against Toulouse. However, the game in that match was frankly mediocre. PSG did not have a worse squad for a very long time.
In recent years, Metz cannot resist PSG at all. As for the last two matches, the team received five goals in each. Now there is a great chance to take away points from the champion who lost all the leaders. Being not very strong in the attack, Metz shouldn’t allow PSG to score. Parisians have their trump cards, which are not as formidable as usual, but it's PSG. They can score two goals out of nothing. I take such an under total in combination with the fact that PSG will not suffer the second defeat in this season so quickly.
Prediction for the match: Paris SG to win with +0.5 handicap and Under 3.5 goals scored
