5368
On Monday night, Metz and Guingamp go head-to-head at the Stade Saint-Symphorien in Ligue 2, as both teams look for some consistency in the French second tier.
Metz
The home team has made an inconsistent start to the new league campaign, picking up 11 points from their opening seven games.
A goalless draw against Annecy last time out in the league means that Metz has won just one of their previous four league matches. However, on the flip side, Metz has also suffered just one defeat in their last six matches in Ligue 2.
Metz have picked up just one point from their last two home matches in the French second tier. They have been tough to beat on home soil in Ligue 2, though, losing one of their previous 14 games at the Stade Saint-Symphorien.
Metz have a formidable home defensive record in Ligue 2, having kept clean sheets in five of their last six home matches.
Guingamp
Like their hosts, the visitors have made an inconsistent start to the new Ligue 2 season, picking up ten points from their opening six matches in the French second tier.
A 2-1 home defeat against Sochaux last time out in Ligue 2 means that Guingamp has recorded just one win in their previous four league games.
Guingamp have been strong travellers of late in Ligue 2, though, winning five of their last seven away games in Ligue One, having suffered just one defeat in the process.
One of the biggest reasons for Guingamp’s good recent away form is their attacking prowess, as they have scored at least two goals in five of their last seven league games on their travels.
