THE PREDICTION
Metz come into this in the back of their French cup Round of 16 penalty shootout defeat away to Monaco. That was their second consecutive defeat to Monaco after a 4-0 loss away last weekend as well. They remain in contention for European qualification but the emotional exertion of losing on penalties could cost them as they come up against top-of-the-table Lille. The visitors’ victory away to Paris Saint-Germain has given them the opportunity to six points clear with six games to go before PSG play this weekend. The visitors will expect to follow up that win with another victory on the road here.
