The Right Picks and Best Betting Tips for Nimes vs Metz
Metz to Win
The last h2h is not a satisfactory memory for the Maroons, as on that occasion they lost 3-0 at home. However, that was almost two years ago, and now the Crocodiles’ performance is not very good, that’s why they are in the relegation place.
Metz is at the top of the table trying to move up, in the last 4 matchdays they got 10 out of 12 possible points, in the same period Nimes got only 5. I expect the difference in level to be very evident in this match and for the away team to win.
Under 2.5 Goals
Four of the Crocodiles’ last five league games ended with less than 2.5 goals, in fact on the last matchday there were no goals at all. Before the season was paused, Metz had a good goal average, but in the resumption of the league they have only scored one goal, but at least they did not concede any.
The last time the two teams met there was just one goal in total. The low goal production of both teams can determine a matchup with 1 or 2 goals in total.
BTTS – No
In the 2021 season, the two clubs met in Ligue 1, in the two championship matchups, only one team scored in each match. Interestingly, both Nimes and the Maroons won their away game. In the restart of the season, the Maroons accumulated two consecutive clean sheets, while on the previous matchday, the Crocodiles drew 0-0. We expect to see in Nimes vs Metz only one team to score on this occasion.
Nimes vs Metz Preview: Sink The Rival To Climb Up
Nimes
The Crocodiles are in desperate need of a win, as poor results have pushed them to the bottom of the table. Coach Frederic Bompard has not been able to find the best version of his team, which was also knocked out of the French Cup after losing 1-0 to Grenoble.
In their last league matchup, they visited Annecy, one of their direct rivals. Nimes missed the chance to reduce the points difference with their rivals and to put one foot out of the relegation zone. After 90 minutes, each team scored only once, the final score was 0-0.
Metz
Laszlo Boloni’s team restarted the season in a similar way as before the break in the championship. I hope that they have four matches without defeat, and three of them were victories.
In the last matchup, the Maroons obtained a great result in their visit to Grenoble, one of their direct rivals. It was difficult for both teams to generate scoring chances, as both focused on keeping their lines tight and in their own half. The only goal of the match was scored by Metz centre-back Fali Cande.
