Monday, at 19:45, Metz will receive Auxerre’s visit in a match for the 13th round of Ligue 2. The match will take place at the “Stade Municipal Saint-Symphorien” in Metz.
Big thoughts for the host band.
LATEST 1, Metz is not going to wait for an extra season until it returns to the first Hexagon football stadium. “Les Grenats” ranks first in Ligue 2 after 12 stages, registering 9 victories and taking them to the side of brilliant controversies such as Brest, Lens or Lorient. In addition, Metz’s offensive system works at high odds, Frederic Antonetti’s band recording an average of 2 goals scored per match. On the other hand, Auxerre does not feel good at the table, even if the 10-16 goal does not really reflect that. With eight defeats in the first 12 stages, Auxerre is on the scene of a barrage, not in a critical situation, but neither gratifying. The game of the team is economical, pragmatic, crisp, and this could make a decisive mark on the outcome of this game.
Only four official direct confrontations took place between the two bands in recent history, and both groups split their victories by two;
The last direct official match took place in April 2016, when Auxerre convinced himself on his own field, score 4-0;
Metz‘s previous success at home in front of Auxerre dates back to December 2013 from a 3-0;
Given the circumstances of this game, we expect a balanced outburst of hostilities, orisicum, a more balanced one than the Ligue 2 standings reflect at this time.
PREDICTION: Metz to win @ 1.65
