LiontipsMetz - Lorient: betting tip (cf 2.05) and bets on the French Championship match
Command Analysis
Current form
Metz left Ligue 1 ahead of schedule and is starting to prepare for playing in Ligue 2, where they will have to fight again to return to the elite. Messines occupy the last place in the standings and have won only three victories since the start of the French championship, the worst result among all clubs. Bruno Taveno's team suffered 22 defeats and conceded 72 goals, which indicates an unsatisfactory preparation for the season, and the club deservedly dropped in class.
The team from the city of the same name was defeated by Monaco in the last round. Metz looked no worse than the Monegasques. In the 49th minute of the match, the Maroon opened the scoring, could not hold the advantage and missed the second goal in stoppage time - 1:2 in total.
Disqualifications and injuries
The club has Mangondo in the infirmary, and Toure's exit is questionable.
Interesting betting trends
- Metz has been conceding an average of 2.5 goals in Ligue 1 since the start of the season.
- The Maroon players have earned an average of 1.5 yellow cards in the last five games.
Approximate line–up: Si – Sarr, Sane, Mbula, Yegbe, Tsitaishvili – Gbamen, Istanbul, Demikue - Ein, Kvilitaya.
Current form
Lorient is in the middle of the Ligue 1 standings and is in eighth place. The Dark Orange are four points behind Strasbourg and have a chance to compete for eighth place, but most likely not this season. Paris and Toulouse, who are catching up, are on their heels, but so far the difference between them is only one point. It should be noted that the Merluzovs have a negative difference between goals scored and conceded (44 versus 49).
In the last round, the team was able to earn one point in the match against PSG. Lorient looked no weaker than his opponent and was able to realize his scoring chances, winning back twice during the meeting (2:2). However, Olivier Pantaloni's team played with the second Parisian squad, and this draw was achieved only because of the inexperience and little playing practice of the young players of the best club in France.
Disqualifications and injuries
The injured Le Brice and Yongwa will not help the team.
Interesting betting trends
- Lorient has won at Metz once in the last five matches.
- The number 2 on the scoreboard was found in four consecutive games of the Merluzovs
Approximate line–up: Mvogo – Miete, Ajay, Fae – Koussi, Awom, Kadyu, Katseris - Pages, Makengo – Dieng.
Trends
The exact score is 1:2
In 3 of the last 5 meetings, the hosts lost by a goal difference or more.
1st halfbet: draw
In 4 of the last 5 matches of the "maroon" in the first half, there was a world series.
The bet is the 2nd half: Lorient will score
In 4 of the last 5 games, the visitors scored in the second half.
Tip and bets
The Maroon defense is the worst in Ligue 1, the team has already conceded 72 goals, but the offense is not the weakest in the French championship. At least three goals have been scored in the last four matches of Metz, and eight in the game against Le Havre. Lorient has started playing open football in recent rounds, as confirmed by a 2-2 goalless draw with PSG and an embarrassing defeat by Strasbourg (2:3). In our opinion, the opponents will not stay too long in defense and will prefer to play on opposite courses. We recommend betting on a total of more than 2.5 goals, which was scored in four of the last five games of the opponents in Metz.
The betting tip is a total of more than 2.5 goals with a coefficient of 1.70
Betting on the outcome
For Lorient, going to Metz has always been a difficult problem – just one win in the last five matches. However, Bruno Taveno's team has lost motivation for the remaining two rounds and could easily lose. On the contrary, the dark orange have been looking confident lately, taking points away from the leaders (a draw with PSG and a victory over Marseille) and do not intend to lose to the outsider. A foreign field is not a hindrance for Olivier Pantonoli's players today, and in our opinion, it will not be difficult to leave Metz, who left Ligue 1 with nothing. We suggest that you place a bet on the victory of the Merluzovs.
Prediction — Lorient wins with a coefficient of 2.10
Betting on corners
Lorient will spend a lot of time in attack, and Metz will not stay on the defensive on its own field. You can consider the option of betting with a total more on corner shots, which took place in the last four meetings of the maroon.
The betting tip is that the total number of corners is more than 9.5 with a coefficient of 1.92
