Metz vs PSG: prediction for the Ligue 1 match

Metz put up a decent performance in the previous season and deserved a mid-table finish. Team kept the core of the squad and even strengthened it a little bit.

Frederic Antonetti's men started the season with three draws and then suffered three consecutive defeats. Messins currently have three points in their asset and a bottom spot in the standings. Team's weakest link is their defensive line, they conceded more than two goals per game.

Nguette, Cabit and Boulaya are on team's injuried list.

PSG are aiming for the top of Ligue 1 standings since the first rounds and so far they are successful in this task. In the previous season Parisians lost the championship race to Lille and also lost the Super Cup. Club signed some of the best players in the world, such as Lionel Messi and Sergio Ramos, which might become a huge motivation boost for the team. 

Blue-Reds recorded six victories in first six matches and scored 18 goals, averaging three per game. In the most recent match capital club defeated Lyon (2:1).

Bernat, Verratti, Dagba, Ramosare on team's injuried list and it is also uncertain, whether Lionel Messi will play, he is recovering from a knee injury.
