Metz Nantes betting prediction

|  Nantes |
Betting suggestion:
This duel puts in the field two teams that have been campaigning very distinct so far in the French Championship. While Nantes is in the top five, Metz is still isolated in the competition's last position. The home team is very fragile in several defensive aspects, especially in containing counterattacks, intercepting long balls and fighting more skillful players. Nantes stands out in the plays of set pieces and has managed to create a good volume of opportunities, but its defense fails in defensive set pieces. So, as both attacks have not been showing much ease in the last matches, it is a good option to bet on a few goals.

Preview
Metz and Nantes meet at Stade Saint‑Symphorien, in a match for the 30th round of the Ligue 1. Nantes got a home win by (1‑0), in the last league head‑to‑head, played in 30‑09‑2017. The head‑to‑head record between these two teams couldn't be more balanced, since there were 4 draws and 1 win for each team in the last 6 head‑to‑heads. Metz registers significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth special attention.
Analysis Metz
The home team is currently in the 20th position of the league, with 20 points won, after 5 wins, 5 draws and 19 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in a home match against Toulouse, by (1‑1). In the last match, they lost in an away match against PSG, by (5‑0). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 2 wins, 4 draws and 9 losses in away matches, with 16 goals scored and 31 conceded; against 4 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses at their stadium, with 14 goals scored and 22 conceded. For the league, Metz won 11 points out of 30 possible points, after 3 wins, 2 draws and 5 losses in the last 10 home matches. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 29 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 19 times and have only turned the score around in 1.
Metz find itself in an increasingly desperate situation within the French Championship as the competition draws to a close and the team is far from being able to leave the relegation zone. The team, who have not won for six rounds, now has another defeat, this time against Paris Saint Germain, in a game where it finished three times less than the opponent and failed in defensive terms, being then defeated away from home. The five goals conceded in that confrontation were not so unusual for the team, since its defense is the most leaked of the competition, next to Dijon's. Playing at home, the team owns the worst campaign, and in that condition got only 11 of the 42 points played. It is likely the coach will keep the team in 4-2-3-1, with no major problems defining the initial eleven.

Analysis Nantes
The away team is currently in the 5th position of the league, with 43 points won, after 12 wins, 7 draws and 10 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in an away match against Olympique Marseille, by (1‑1). In the last match, they won in a home match against Troyes, by (1‑0). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 5 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses in away matches, with 21 goals scored and 19 conceded; against 7 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses at their stadium, with 15 goals scored and 14 conceded. In the last 10 away league matches Nantes has a record of 2 wins, 4 draws and 4 losses, so they have won 10 points out of 30 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (6 out of 15 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 29 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 11 times and have only turned the score around in 1.
Nantes enters the field for this game a little less pressure after having rediscovered the way of victory in the French Championship, thus ending a fast that lasted five rounds. At the time, the team played a balanced game against Troyes, but finished more than double the opponent and thus managed to leave the field with the three points next to its fans. The fact that it has not conceded a goal in this match confirms what the team has been showing throughout the competition, since its defense is the third less leaked. However, the team has failed in possession of the ball, and has the second worst average in this area. Away from home, Nantes owns the sixth best campaign, and in that condition has scored goals in the last nine games. The 4-2-3-1 has been the standard scheme adopted by the coach, who should keep Dubois as a reference on the right side.
