Prediction: 2-0
Metz
Saturday's Ligue 1 matchday 13 action rolls on with fifth-placed Lille, who will lock horns with early relegation nominee Metz at the Stade Pierre- Mauroy. Both teams come into this game with an identical vein of weak league form, each having won just one of their last five games. The home team meanwhile slightly edges the head to head, winning three of the last six meetings between the two.
Metz, at the same time, prevailed in two of those meetings. Additionally, this fixture is goal-laden, having produced 19 goals at an average of 3.1 goals per game. Despite their current poor run of form, Lille's strong performances at home have earned them the second-best home record. The Les Dogues at home should fancy their chances against a low on confidence Metz outfit. We believe this game to end in a comfortable win for the home side.

Thanks to amalgamation of two amateur clubs Metz were founded in 1932 and soon they became a professional team. Les Grenats are one of the oldest professional teams in France, but they have yet to win the Ligue 1 trophy. Metz finished the 1997/1998 season in second place in the standings and it has to be noted that they were level on points with champions Lens (worse goal difference).
However, les Grenats won Coupe de France on two occasions (1983/1984, 1987/1988), with the team beating Monaco and Sochaux respectively in the title games.
