Team News

Lens
Metz
  • Lens could field a weaker side with an eye on Wednesday's trip to Seville.
  • Facundo Medina is suspended and Massadio Haïdara is likely to take his place on the left side of defence.
  • Fit-again Wesley Saïd could also be an option in attack, as could new signing Faitout Maouassa.
  • Ruben Aguilar, who joined from Monaco late in the window, is in the frame to start at right wing-back.
  • After an impressive draw against Reims, the visitors are unlikely to make many changes here.
  • Maxime Colin could also be an option at right back.
  • Ismaël Traoré remains a doubt for the visitors.

Prediction

  • Metz have had a surprising start to the season, and could be eager to catch the hosts with an eye on their return to the Champions League.
  • That said, Lens have had a poor start to the season domestically, and will be looking to right the ship with a result before facing Sevilla in the week.
