Metz vs Brest Prediction & Match Preview

Metz missed two penalties to end a four-game unbeaten thread last weekend in a 0-2 defeat to fourth-placed Lille.

They will try and regain the confidence ahead of the home clash against top-half side Brest on Sunday afternoon at Stade Saint Symphorien.

Metz have generally grown in attacking form in recent weeks, scoring three goals in each of the successive victories over Nantes and Lorient before the mentioned loss at Lille.

They created a lot even against a very strong Lille defense, earning two penalties after all. It will be very interesting to see whether they will be able to perform in the final third here against Brest.

The visitors have been playing hot and cold since the start of the season but they once again seem to be on a positive run of form.

Brest managed back-to-back wins over Montpellier and Strasbourg in the last two rounds, scoring three goals in each of the victories along the way.

Eric Roy’s men climbed to seventh place in the Ligue 1 standings as Romain Del Castillo led them to a 3-0 drubbing of Strasbourg with a brace seven days ago at Stade Francis-Le Ble.

Latest Meetings

The outfits have 8 wins each going into their 21st head to head encounter.

Interestingly, each of the previous four head to head matches between these teams ended in away wins.

Only two of the last nine H2H outings between Metz and Brest ended with three or more goals scored.

The Verdict

Both Metz and Brest have been on a decent attacking form lately and we see enough reasons to back the Both Teams To Score option at the attractive 1.90 odds here.

The quality is on Brest’s side and the visitors enter this on the back of two straight convincing wins. We’ll back them to make it three on the spin at the 2.20 odds.
