Metz form and stats

Metz might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Monaco proved too strong as Metz slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at Stade Saint-Symphorien. That result followed a home victory 2-1 versus Nîmes.

The schedule is very tough for Metz now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Ligue 1 game at Paris Saint Germain is waiting in only three days.

In total they scored 27 and conceded 35 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 3 - drew 6 and lost 5 with 9/18 goals scored/conceded.

Head 2 Head

H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Lille five wins, three draws and Metz two victories. As for goals, five matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), five games had two or less.
