An important duel in the bottom section of the Ligue 1, with both Amiens SC and Metz experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 19th and the visitors in 16th place.
Amiens SC and Metz should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Amiens SC form and stats
Amiens SC have collected 14 points from their Ligue 1 home games so far after 3-5-5. The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a league-game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in 14 attempts. With seven home Ligue 1 games in a row without a win, the Amiens SC fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Brest game long ago, can be stopped today.
