ℹ️ Team News: Metz
Nearly everyone is up for selection, with just a single fitness concern for the Metz manager Stéphane Le Mignan to be concerned about from of an almost fully healthy group of players. Aboubacar Lô (Back injury) will miss out.
🗞️ Team News: Red Star
Red Star boss Grégory Poirier has multiple availability issues to deal with. Rayane Doucouré (Knee injury) and Bradley Danger (Knock) will not be playing here.
⚡ Prediction
In our opinion, FC Metz will more than likely fashion enough chances to find the net more than once while possibly not conceding when they face Red Star, who will be up against it to break down their defence.
Our selection here is for a 2-0 win for FC Metz after 90 minutes.
