Now, based on the provided data, let's proceed to analyze the current forms of the teams.
Metz
Metz didn’t have the best start in the French championship. The team, which represented Ligue 2 of the country just last season, faced “Rennes” in the first round, a team clearly aiming for European competitions. And their determination was vividly expressed as the “red-blacks” crushed their opponent with a score of 5:1. Although before this, in friendly matches, the “maroon” team played quite confidently, not losing any of their six games. Last season, “Metz” finished quite well, maintaining a series of 25 matches without defeats. As a result, the “maroon” team finished second in Ligue 2.
Marseille
On the other hand, “Marseille” had a decent start to the season in Ligue 1, immediately defeating “Reims” with a score of 2:1. However, their game could have ended in a draw as one goal in the first half was not counted for the “red-whites”. But the more significant match for Marseille took place during the week in the second leg of the Champions League qualification, they faced “Panathinaikos”. The “blue-whites” managed to concede a goal in the ninth added minute, which led to a penalty shootout, where the French representative was defeated. The head coach of Marseille, Marcelino, philosophically accepted this defeat, stating that “fate did not want us to progress further.” More todays football predictions can be obtained from the link provided.
Prediction
In this match, we have no doubt about the success of the visitors. Just a couple of days ago, "Marseille" was eliminated from the Champions League qualification. But, in our view, this only motivates the team even more to win now. Moreover, the bench of the "blue-whites" is quite deep, as the club made many acquisitions during the summer. So, we are now placing a bet on the Asian handicap (-1) for "Marseille" with odds of 2.38. We are also confident that "Marseille" will not concede in this match. The level of the opponents differs too much - it's unlikely that "Metz" will be able to pose defensive problems to their opponent. The "blue-whites" cannot afford to face failure in two consecutive matches. Our choice is the bet - at least one team will not score. This option is valued at 2.22. Place a bet
