Marseille vs Metz team news
Marseille
Including their loss to Rennes in Coupe de France after penalties, Marseille have now failed to win in their last five games in all competitions. In the league, they followed three straight draws with a loss to Lyon in the last round and this bad run of form caused Marseille to fall down to the 8th place in the standings.
Meanwhile, Marseille will miss injured Amir Murillo, Jordan Veretout, Valentin Rongier, Geoffrey Kondogbia, and Bilal Nadir. Also, Chancel Mbemba remains at AFCON with DR Congo.
Predicted Lineup – Lopez – Clauss, Balerdi, Gigot, Merlin – Ndiaye, Kondogbia, Ounahi – Sarr, Harit, Aubameyang
Metz
With seven losses in a row in Ligue 1, Metz is on a downward spiral when it comes to their standings in the league. At the moment, they sit in the relegation zone, three points behind the first team outside of it. If they don't turn their form around soon, Metz might be looking at a move back to the second division after just one year in the top flight.
On the bright side, Metz have no injuries or suspensions to worry about at the moment and all their players are back from AFCON, so the team is in full strength.
Predicted Lineup – Oukidja – Colin, Cande, Traore, Udol – Jacques, N'Doram, Camara – Asoro, Mikautadze, Lamkel Ze
Confirmed Marseille vs Metz lineups will appear here around 60 minutes before kickoff.
