The champion Lille starts the new season in League 1 with an away game at Metz in which he will face FC METZ at 18:00 the cross in the game. Metz had a good preparation and this was seen with three consecutive victories in the preparation friendlies, a fact that builds their confidence for the new year. The level of difficulty, however, goes up against Lille, a team that has not won in the last five games between them. They also have only one win in their last 11 league games and in six of their last 10 games in all competitions they have not scored more than one goal. Last season, they did not score many goals in the league, scoring 44 goals in 38 games, this shows us that they are a team of "under"
On the other hand, the champion Lille They are not that good at scoring and most of their recent victories are based on their defensive style of play and their strong defensive line which they use quite well. Last season they were one of the four teams with the fewest goals, but they had the best defense in the league after conceding 23 goals in 38 games. They go into this game directly from the 1-0 victory over PSG in the French Super Cup. Lille did not have the best results in the pre-season games, winning only one of the four but their victory over PSG is a sign that they are still a formidable team. In six of their last 10 league games, it has kept a clean sheet and has not scored more than one goal in five of its 10 games, as we said before and LIL seems to be a UNDER team.
Lille start this game with their psychology soaring after their victory over PSG in the Super Cup. They remain favorites, as happened in their recent meetings with the Mets. With the latest data the teams will not see many goals in this game, their defenses will keep the ball away from the net. So I will bet on UNDER 2.5 at odds of 1.60 offered by STOIXIMAN.
