THE PREDICTION
Metz saw their impressive eight-game unbeaten run come to an end with a defeat to Brest last weekend but they will have a difficult job returning to winning ways against this in-form Lyon side. The visitors haven’t lost in nine league games and they are clearly thriving during a time when many of their rivals are involved in midweek European football. Manager Rudi Garcia couldn’t ask for much more right now but he knows his side will face a Metz outfit who will set up to frustrate them. The hosts’ last six matches have each contained under three goals and Lyon may find it difficult to break them down initially. Their class should ultimately tell though, with a low-scoring win tin nil for Lyon the prediction.
