THE PREDICTION

Metz’ penchant for conceding late goals continued last weekend when a late Montpellier equaliser denied them a second straight win and that carelessness in the dying minutes has really cost them so far. They host a Lorient side here whom they are tied on points with in the league table and both will look at this encounter as an opportunity to distance themselves from the relegation zone. Lorient have looked fragile on their travels so far having conceded five goals across their two away trips and Metz will fancy their chances of grinding out a narrow victory, so Draw no Bet on the hosts could be worth looking at.
