Metz, Recent FormA 1-1 draw in their last match against Lyon meant Metz had to settle for a share of the points. During that encounter they had 33% possession and had 10 attempts on goal with 5 on target, while their opponents hit 4 of their 15 shots on goal.
Having scored just 2 goals in their last 6 games, it will be glaringly obvious to their manager László Bölöni where he needs to focus his attentions if they are going to get more points on the table. Hoever, he will still have one eye on his defence which has shipped 8 in the same period. Not only have they failed to score in 4 of their last 6 games, but they have also failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
Results wise, their recent poor run of form has left them without a win in 6 games.
Nantes, Recent FormThe Nantes squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 1-0 home defeat against Reims, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. In that game they had 50% possession and managed 17 attempts on goal, with 4 on target, compared to Reims who had 7 attempts and 4 on target.
Manager Pierre Aristouy will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 12 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 10 goals they managed at the other end. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They're experiencing a relativley poor spell of form on the road, having lost 4 of their last 6 away games despite notching up a couple of wins.
The previous match between these two ended without a goal and a share of the spoils, so it wasn't one to remember on that occasion.
During the last 3 times these two teams have met in the league at Stade Saint-Symphorien, Les Canaris have been unable to break through the Metz defence and find the back of the net.
In the league, Metz has had a good run at home against Nantes, being unbeaten in their last 6 meetings at Stade Saint-Symphorien.
With only Óscar Estupiñán (Hamstring) and Habib Maïga (Calf) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, László Bölöni will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
With only Douglas Augusto (Sprained knee) and Fabien Centonze (Hamstring) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Pierre Aristouy will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
