Metz, Recent FormThe 2-0 away defeat to Lille will not have sat easily with the Metz squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. Their share of possession in that meeting was 34%, while racking up 7 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to Lille, who had 16 shots on goal with 6 on target.
László Bölöni will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 8 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 8 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They have been unable to score at home in 3 of their last 6 games, and they have also failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
Having drawn 3 of their last 6 home games they have at least put some points on the board, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
Brest, Recent FormBrest manager Éric Roy will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 1-1 draw in his team's last league outing against Strasbourg. They achieved 61% possession in that match and had 14 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Strasbourg's tally of 9 efforts at goal, 5 of which were on target.
When it comes to attacking power Roy will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 9 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 8 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
Their current form can't be viewed positively, having clocked up 3 losses from their last 6 games and only 2 wins to speak of.
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for Metz, losing 0-1 to Brest.
Les Ty' Zefs have managed to keep a clean sheet against Metz in each of their previous 2 visits to Stade Saint-Symphorien. Les Ty' Zefs will be feeling confident about extending their scoring record against Metz, having notched up at least 1 goal in the previous 5 meetings between the two. Les Grenats have struggled for goals when Brest comes to visit Stade Saint-Symphorien, having scored just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings.
Metz has a poor track record in the league when they host Brest, losing in their last 2 home games.
Metz manager László Bölöni has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Maxime Colin (Unknown), Óscar Estupiñán (Hamstring) and Aboubacar Lô (Unknown) are all currently out of contention for this game.
There is only really one injury concern for the Brest manager Éric Roy ahead of this clash, with Jordan Amavi (Calf) missing out, which gives Roy a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
