MATCH ANALYSIS
Already without Neymar and Cavani, PSG lost a third star striker when Mbappe went off injured in Sunday's 4-0 win over Toulouse, ruled out until the end of September. Although it is a stretch to suggest they will lose at mid-table Metz, the champions' margin of victory may not be huge.
