Metz and Le Havre were tipped to struggle in the season, and the prediction is so far true ahead of their meeting on Sunday. Hosts Metz are pasted at the bottom of the standings, while Le Havre are seated just above the relegation zone. We have a prediction for the match below. Metz would have wished for a tougher start on their return to the big stage. They remain the only side yet to win after five league matches. Having faced Monaco, Lyon, and Strasbourg in their opening five matches, that was expected. However, they have also failed to make the most of easier fixtures against Angers and Paris FC. They are coming into this one off the back of a 5-2 defeat.
Le Havre will hope to join the party as another team to take points off Metz. They lost this fixture the last time the two faced off and have actually failed to beat Metz in the last three meetings. Coming from behind to draw 1-1 with Lorient last time out was a good warm-up for this fixture, especially after having missed a penalty in the game. Le Havre have by all means started the season better than Metz, not only in terms of points won but also goals scored and conceded.
