Match preview: Caen vs Metz

Caen and Metz are set to meet at Stade Michel d’Onano for the 29th round of Ligue 2. In their last encounter in this competition on 09‑11‑2024, Metz emerged victorious at home with a scoreline of 1‑0. Over the past three years, the direct matchups between these sides have produced one draw and one win for each team. It’s crucial to examine the home and away performance, as Caen’s results are significantly different when playing at home compared to their away fixtures.

Team analysis: Caen

After 5 wins, 4 draws, and 19 losses, the home side finds itself in 18th place, having accumulated just 19 points. They faced a defeat against Paris (4‑2) in their last match, and prior to that, they lost away to Amiens SC (2‑1). Caen is generally stronger when playing at home, with a record of 3 wins, 1 draw, and 11 losses in their last 30 away matches, compared to 4 wins, 3 draws, and 8 losses on their own ground. So far in the league, they have gathered only 5 points from 30 possible, with a mere solitary victory, 2 draws, and 7 losses in their last 10 home matches.

They have not won any of their last 7 home games in this competition. Some common scorelines in their home fixtures include 0‑1 at half-time (5 times in 14 games) and a final score of 0‑1 (5 times in 14 games). Their defensive solidity has been inadequate, conceding goals in 9 of the last 10 league matches. Matches at home have generally seen fewer goals, as evidenced by 10 of their last 14 games finishing with under 3 goals. In their 28 league matches played, they have never managed to turn around a deficit in the 19 matches where they conceded the first goal.

Caen finds itself in a difficult situation within Ligue 2, grappling with instability that has raised concerns among fans. The spectre of relegation looms large, making it imperative for them to find a solution to alter their current fortunes. Adopting a more offensive style could be critical in attempting to surprise Metz, who will pose their own challenges.

Team analysis: Metz

After securing 16 wins, 8 draws, and 4 losses, the visitors currently sit in 2nd place with 56 points. They won their last match against Troyes (2‑1) at home, and before this, they claimed victory against Dunkerque (2‑3) away. Metz is relatively unaffected by the home advantage, showing similar results regardless of where they play. In their last 30 matches, they have recorded 7 wins, 4 draws, and 4 losses as visitors, scoring a total of 18 goals and conceding 14. At home, they have achieved 10 wins, 4 draws, and only 1 defeat, having scored 32 goals while allowing just 10.

In the league, Metz earned 16 points out of 30 possible from their last 10 away games, indicating a strong performance overall. Remarkably, they have not lost in their last 8 away matches. Despite conceding in 8 of their last 10 games, they have shown offensive prowess, scoring in 9 out of 10 matches this season. Of the 28 league matches played, they have managed to recover the score in just 1 of the 9 matches in which they conceded the first goal. In their last 13 away fixtures in this competition, they notably scored 6 of their 17 goals in the period between 16′ and 30′, and 6 of their 17 goals at the end of matches between 76′ and 90′.

Metz has showcased a robust performance in Ligue 2, entering this match with high expectations, particularly with an eye on the title race and promotion to the top tier. Their solid form thus far positions them well to tackle the forthcoming challenges. Maintaining this high level of play will be crucial to secure a win against Caen, who are battling through a tough season.
