Metz form and stats

5 victories, 4 draws and 9 defeats. That’s what Metz have to build on here at Stade Saint-Symphorien in the Ligue 1. With seven home Ligue 1 games in a row without a win, the Metz fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Nantes game long ago, can be stopped today.

Metz lost their last game at Lorient (placed 17th) after a 1-2 scoreline. Thomas Delaine, defender, was given a rating of 7.35/10 in that game, top of the team. Delaine served one assist, hit one key pass and won 6 of 9 duels.

Preceding that match was the home game against Nîmes that was lost 0-3.

Metz are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 18 goals in 18 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Metz have conceded 25 in these home matches.
