[Football- France 'Ligue 1- playoffs'] 30.5/ 20:30 St.Etienne- Metz
St. After defeating the Rodez team 2-0 last Friday on their own pitch in the Play-off semi-final match, Etienne is entering the final fight for the Lique 1 spot for next season. The hosts are favorites to win because they look quite good on their home field. In 14 hundred matches as hosts, they lost only 5 goals, which shows how difficult it is for visiting teams to score a goal here. In addition, the locals' rival today will be a team that has not been doing well in the last few weeks.
Metz was saved from direct relegation from Lique 1 only thanks to a better balance of matches against Lorient. However, they lost the last 4 league matches and have a rather poor record. In the last away match against PSG, they had only 24% of ball possession, which is a tragic result despite the quality of the opponent.
In addition, in general, only 35% of possession throughout the season is an alarming result. You can see how much Metz could dominate their opponents in the French top division. I think St. Etienne, as a regular in Lique 1, may treat his rival in a similar way.
To sum up - for me, the hosts are the clear favorites to win at home in regular time. I think that one of the two, Sissoko - Cordona, will get on the scoresheet, this time I'm betting on the first one.
