Metz vs Lyon Prediction & Betting Tips - Ligue 1
by Steve Ashfield | in Ligue 1 Prediction
Lyon take on Juventus in the Champions League next week but before that go to Metz in Ligue 1. Metz are down in 15th place and only two points above the bottom three, while Lyon are in 11th, six points adrift of the final Europa League qualifying place. It's not been a great season so far for Lyon who have no wins in their last four league games and have now lost nine matches in Ligue 1 this season. Away form had been good with five wins out of 11 but both of their last two have ended in defeat, though one was at leaders PSG.
Metz are six points behind their opponents and facing a relegation battle. They are the draw experts in this league with ten of them this season, the only team to reach double figures. Six have been won but none in the last three. Their last league victory was a home win over struggling Saint Etienne. Two of their last three league games have ended in a draw. Their most recent home fixture was against Bordeaux, losing 2-1 despite taking a second minute lead. A goal six minutes from time sealed their fate in that match. 16 of their league games have had under 2.5 goals scored in them. Both sides have seen that stat come up in two of their last three league games, so the tip here is for under 2.5 goals in the match.
