Metz will chase their first point of the 2025-26 Ligue 1 campaign when they host Angers on matchday four this Sunday. This match at Stade Saint-Symphorien between the last-placed Les Grenats and the eighth-placed Le SCO comes with our prediction of under 2.5 goals.
Having lost all three games, Metz are rooted to the bottom of the points tally. Angers have four points (W1, D1, L1) and are two points adrift of the top six sides, although just one point above the relegation zone.
Ten-man Metz lost 3-2 at Paris FC before the break, although their fate was sealed by the 67th minute. It continued their poor start to the season, having lost 1-0 at home against Strasbourg on matchday one and 3-0 at Lyon on matchday two.
That makes it seven straight losses for Metz in this competition, including four at this venue.
Angers held Rennes to a 1-1 draw at home before the break, clawing their way back from a goal down. That result came on the back of a 1-0 away loss at PSG on matchday two, where a 50th-minute strike was the difference between both teams.
Their lone win came on matchday one against Paris FC (1-0), and Angers will be wary of their poor away form, having lost five of the last six league trips.

Our Metz vs Angers Prediction
Metz remain the only side without a point in this campaign, and a large part of that blame falls on their misfiring frontline. With only two goals to their name, they have one of the lowest scoring records of the division. Interestingly, Angers are tied with them on that count but are having a better season. That’s because of their impressive defensive record, which let in just two goals in this campaign.
Goals look bleak in this contest of two misfiring teams, and that’s why our Metz vs Angers prediction is under 2.5.
