"Sat rock-bottom of the table and showing a string of issues throughout the 2025/26 campaign, Benoit Tavenot's side look like they will lose their top-flight status with a whimper this year. Last seen falling to a 2-1 loss at the hands of Strasbourg, the Lorraine-based outfit will be bracing themselves for a stern examination when they return to the Stade Saint-Symphorein this weekend."
"Winning six of their seven Europa League appearances this season and leading the chase at the top of the top, Les Gones have also come skyrocketing their way up the Ligue 1 standings. Last seen in domestic action clinching a 2-1 victory at home against Brest, the former Roma boss has remarkably seen his side win all of their previous seven consecutive appearances across all competitions."
Metz sit rock-bottom of Ligue 1 with persistent issues through the 2025/26 campaign and appear destined for relegation. Benoit Tavenot's side recently lost 2-1 to Strasbourg and suffered a 4-0 Coupe de France defeat at home to Montpellier. Metz ended 2025 with a 3-2 loss to PSG and have collected only one point from their last six league matches. Lyon are enjoying a sensational run, winning six of seven Europa League games and rising to the top of the domestic table. Paulo Fonseca's team have won seven consecutive matches across all competitions, including a 2-1 home victory over Brest.
