Prediction: 1-1
Lille
Stade Saint-Symphorien will host Sunday’s football game between Metz and Lille, the two teams with entirely different ambitions for the season finale. Les Grenats aim to build on back-to-back wins over Lens and Le Havre and a triumph over Lille could see them escape the danger zone. Both Joel Asoro and Benjamin Tetteh are sidelined with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
Les Dogues, on the other hand, aim to make amends for a 1-0 loss to Monaco. As Lille are eager to stay in the Champions League berth, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. Benjamin Andre limped off with injury in the midweek defeat, with Ayyoub Bouaddi likely to step up, whereas all Adam Ounas, Andrej Ilic, and Samul Umtiti are out of contention with injuries, speaking of the visiting team.
Highlighted Player (Benjamin André):
Benjamin Andre is a French footballer, who began his career at Stade Raphaelois youth team. At the age of 16 Andre moved to Ajaccio and he played for the first team from 2008 to 2014. The right-footed midfielder scored 12 goals in 187 appearances in the league for the Corsican team and in the summer of 2014 he moved to fellow French club Rennes.
Andre scored his first goal for les Rouges et Noirs on January 25, 2015, in a 4-1 defeat to Caen. The French player made provided three assists for his teammates in 36 appearances for Rennes in the 2016/2017 Ligue 1 campaign and the club chiefs decided to extend his contract in June, 2017. His deal with the Roazhon Park outfit should expire on June 30, 2022.
Benjamin Andre, who was born in Nice on August 3, 1990, has seven caps for France U21 team. The Rennes footballer plays as a central midfielder, but he is often used as both left and right midfielder.
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.
