Our prediction for this match: Metz 2 - 2 Lorient
Metz vs Lorient Preview
Metz welcome Lorient in a low-pressure clash, with the hosts already relegated and the visitors comfortably safe in mid-table. As both teams will be with guards down in Sunday's game, we predict a 2-2 draw. Les Grenats may feel unlucky after their last-gasp defeat to Monaco, but their overall form tells the real story—no wins in the last ten matches and just 0.30 points per game. Defensive fragility has been their downfall all season, conceding 2.30 goals per match, while also failing to score in half of those games. With nothing left to play for, motivation could be questionable despite a desire to end on a positive note.
Lorient, meanwhile, are far from consistent but showed resilience in a 2-2 draw with PSG. While their away form is poor (no wins in last four), they still look more balanced than Metz, especially going forward. There are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team. Historically, this fixture produces goals, with 69% of meetings seeing both teams score.
Taking everything into account, Both teams to score looks like a strong option given defensive weaknesses. Over 2.5 goals is also appealing as both sides are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach in Sunday's game.
