Match preview

Strasbourg have kept only one clean sheet in their last five league matches and one of the division's sharpest strikers could put Metz in front when the sides clash at the Stade Saint-Symphorien.

Only Wissam Bin Yedder (13) and Kylian Mbappe (11) have scored more Ligue 1 goals than Habib Diallo (ten) this campaign and he looks a fine bet to break the deadlock.

He is averaging a strike every 158 minutes and got on the scoresheet in the reverse fixture in August.

Key stat

Metz have scored in five of their last six league matches.
