PSG vs Metz Analysis
PSG Performance Recap and Analysis
The hosts will be among the solid French Ligue 1 predictions this week, as the defending champions come into this fixture after winning four of their last five matches. That run of form sees them sit five points clear at the top of the Ligue 1 standings.
However, PSG will be looking to get back on track this week after a poor display in their previous match against Lille. The champions needed a Kylian Mbappe penalty to make the breakthrough in that clash, but they looked short of confidence in the final third after registering just two shots on target.
Key Injuries
Goncalo Ramos and Carlos Soler will be absent on Wednesday due to illness. Meanwhile, Fabian Ruiz and Sergio Rico aren’t expected to return until 2024.
Betting Trends To Know
PSG look to stand an excellent chance of finding the back of the net this week, as they have scored at least once in each of their last ten matches across all competitions. However, they have scored more than once on just two occasions in their last five across all competitions.
Metz Performance Recap and Analysis
Very few will give the away side a fighting chance when making PSG vs Metz betting picks this week. The visitors come into this showdown in poor recent form, losing each of their last three to drop to 14th in the standings. Defensively, they will need to be much better this week, as they have already allowed 24 goals in the competition this term.
Metz have failed to score in their last three Ligue 1 matches, with their most recent defeat coming at home on Sunday against Montpellier. It wasn’t for the lack of trying in that clash, as they recorded 19 shots. However, they were wasteful in the final third after registering just four on target.
Key Injuries
Oscar Estupinan will be out until the end of the month for Metz. Meanwhile, Aboubacar Lo will also be absent for this trip to the French capital.
Betting Trends To Know
It could be hard to overlook the Metz record in this fixture, as they have lost all 12 of their previous matches with PSG. Over that period, they have averaged 0.7 goals per game compared to 3.1 averaged by the Parisians.
PSG vs Metz Betting Picks
PSG’s dominant run of form was halted in their previous match, but this presents an excellent opportunity to get back on track. It is hard to overlook their clear claims after winning 12 on the bounce against Metz. However, from a betting perspective, it could be worth taking the home side on the spread on Wednesday.
PSG vs Metz Prediction
- PSG (-1) (-225).
