Our prediction for this Ligue 1 match:
Lyon
Match Time & Date:
26/10/2019
02:00 PM
Prediction: 2-0
Metz
Despite creating a number of clear-cut opportunities to score against Dijon, Olympique Lyon failed to win their last league fixture. Les Gones failed to find the net in previous three league fixtures, with the team extending their winless run in the national championship to eight games at the weekend. This has to go down as a must-win situation for Olympique Lyon and we predict that they will go all guns blazing at Metz on Matchday 11.
Les Grenats did well to beat Nantes 1-0 at home ground on day 10, but les Gones are likely to pose a much bigger threat for the bottom-table side than their previous rivals. In each of their previous five meetings in the Ligue 1 Olympique Lyon emerged triumphant, which is yet another reason why we are tempted to put our money on Rudi Garcia’s charges this time out.

Highlighted Player (Memphis Depay):
Memphis Depay is a Dutch winger who started his professional career at PSV Eindhoven. During the 2014/2015 Eredivisie campaign the pacey footballer was on Manchester United’s radar and on June 12, 2015 the Premier League club confirmed the signing of the Dutchman. Many people expected that he would impress in the 2015/2016 Premier League season, but the former PSV ace played below expectations for the Red Devils, scoring only two goals (one assist) during the season.
After playing only for league games for Man Utd in the 2016/2017 season, Memphis Depay was sold to Olympique Lyon on January 20, 2017. Depay signed a four-and-a-half year deal with les Gones for a fee of around £16 million. The Dutch winger was producing fine performances for Lyon in the 2016/2017 season; he scored five goals for the club, while providing eight assists for his teammates.
Memphis Depay made his senior debut for Netherlands on October 15, 2013 in a 2-0 win over Turkey. Depay did well to win the 2011 European Championship with Netherlands U17 team.
Highlighted Team (Metz):
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. Emmanuel Adebayor is considered one of the most famous players who whore Metz jersey and you should know that the Togolese attacker scored 15 goals in 44 appearances in the league for the club.
Metz play their home games at Stade Saint-Symphorien, the venue which was opened back in September, 1923. Les Grenats wear red shirts and white shorts when playing at home, whilst the colour of their away kits is white.
