THE PREDICTION
Nantes narrowly avoided the drop last season but they started the current campaign in fairly positive fashion after holding Monaco to a 1-1 draw at Stade Louis II. Metz also came away with a point from their opener – against last season’s champions Lille no less – but the manner in which they conceded two late goals will have a left a bitter taste in the mouth. Visiting manager Frederic Antonetti will surely prioritise defensive stability here to a avoid a repeat and when looking at recent meetings between the two sides, it looks as if goals may be in short supply. The last seven meetings have each featured two goals or less – and indeed ten of their last 11 league clashes – so backing under 2.5 goals is the suggestion here.
