Team News

Metz
Lorient
  • Christophe Hérelle is back from suspension and could be an option in defence.
  • Kévin Van Den Kerkhof should start on the right following his return from AFCON.
  • Montassar Talbi should be back in the XI having finished his AFCON involvement.
  • Vincent Le Goff has announced his retirement.
  • Mohamed Bamba is also an option in attack after scoring off the bench against Le Havre.

Prediction

  • Les Merlus' attacking options should see them in good stead here, as this represents an ideal chance to break a 10-match winless run.
  • Metz are on a six-match slide of their own, and could see that extended here.
