Metz vs. Paris Saint Germain

At the stadium ‘Municipal Saint-Symphorien’, the team of Metz welcomes the champion team of  Paris St Germain. The meeting is the first of the 14th round of Ligue 1. Metz are newcomers in Ligue 1, but their position is in the upper half of the table in ninth position with a total of 18 points and champions Paris St Germain are second with a total of 27 points. The last meeting between the two teams were played seven years ago, when PSG won with 3-0.

The strength side of the Metz are home games, but as guests for the past 13 rounds they have scored only one goal. Against opponent such as PSG is unlikely to have any chance. Metz comes into this round after the defeat of Toulouse with 3-0.

We expect that the coach Cartier will not play closed and will try to gain what he can from this match. In staffing plan, out of this game will be the defender Bussmann and Gbakoto and also the two of the main strikers of Metz - Falcon and Andrade.

Paris Saint Germain are in excellent shape. The team of Laurent Blanc wins in the last round against the champion Marseille, which shorten the gap between them with only one point. Parisians are in a series of four consecutive victories and overall in the championship are the only team that has not tried the taste of defeat.

Paris St Germain are performing well in the group stage of the Champions League too, where they will continue forward. Lukasz and Cavani are in great shape and the good news for Blanc is the long-awaited return of Ibrahimovic.

Metz had no chance against PSG at this moment and after the return of Ibrahimovic result could not be more different from victory of the guests. We expect more goals in this match.

The football prediction of OnlineSoccerAdvisor.Com is: Metz – Paris St Germain: 2 (or over 2.5 goals)
