Team News

Metz
Lille
  • Didier Lamkel Zé and Christophe Hérelle are fit again, having been on the bench against Le Havre, but neither are likely to be included from the off.
  • Given their strong run of recent form, it should be as you were for the hosts.
  • Edon Zhegrova and Alexsandro are both expected to return for Les Dogues.
  • Rémy Cabella could also be an option for Paulo Fonseca, either on the left or centrally.

Prediction

  • After a gutting loss against Monaco that augurs as a major setback to their top-three hopes, Lille will have to rebound in short order by making a trip to what's sure to be a boisterous atmosphere at the Stade Saint-Symphorien.
  • Metz will be wary of how Le Havre and Lorient get on, but will likely be satisfied with a draw against a relatively high-calibre opponent.
