Metz vs Nimes Best Odds and Top Predictions

Metz will look to maintain its unbeaten run that stretches to seven games while playing a relegation-threatened Nimes.

Metz to Win

Metz is only four points away from the second-placed Bordeaux, but even though they are undefeated in their last seven matches, four of the past five they played ended in a draw. Two of those games they played at home. However, their next opponent is a perfect one to get back into winning ways. Metz has accumulated ten wins this season, half of those coming at home where they are unbeaten in seven games in a row. This Metz vs Nimes prediction is also relevant because Nimes run form that saw them losing six of their last ten matches which translated into a bottom four ranking at the moment. Metz won the first match this season between these teams by the score of 4-1.

Over 2.5 Goals

Metz vs Nimes has been mostly about scoring goals in their past five matches, and three of those went over the 2.5 goals line including the last match which saw five goals scored. However, the risky part is that Metz had the last five matches go under that mark, and for the season they had 16 under 2.5 goals matches. Nimes had 11 ‘over’ matches as they suffered some bad losses.

Both Teams to Score – Yes

Continuing with the goalscoring topic for this match, in their last ten games, six of them covered BTTS. Metz had the last two league encounters going goalless, and before that only had two BTTS matches out of the last five. Nimes had six out of the past seven matches when both teams scored a goal which is not surprising as they are one of the teams with the worst defensive skills in Ligue 2.

Metz vs Nimes Lineups, Preview, and Team Information

Metz

The battle for promotion has been interesting and exciting for some time now. Le Havre has topped the league for months and they are almost sure to be promoted which leaves only one spot left for a trip to Ligue 1. Currently, Bordeaux holds that position with several teams waiting for their chance including Metz. Their unbeaten run is giving them a decent chance, but they must win games like the ones against Nimes to have a realistic chance of being promoted. Metz has only goalkeeper Marc-Aurele Caillard injured for the upcoming match.

Nimes

While their opponent is thinking about playing with the best teams in France next season, Nimes players have their mindset prepared differently. Their only hope is that they can avoid relegation and drop down the leagues into the unknown. Nimes is four points away from the first team above the relegation line, and with their away form in shambles, there is little chance something will change soon enough. Benoit Poulain, Scotty Sadzoute, and Mahamadou Doucoure are injured for the guest team.
