Team analysis: Metz

This marks Metz’s first match of the current competition, following their promotion after finishing third in the previous season. In their last outing, they triumphed against Reims with a 3-1 victory after extra time in the Play-Offs. Over their last ten home games, Metz has secured 6 wins, 3 draws, and just 1 defeat. Despite frequently conceding goals, having seen the net bulge behind them 9 times in their last 10 fixtures, their attack has been consistently effective with at least one goal in each of those matches. In those 15 games, they faced the first goal four times but managed to level things up in two instances.

Metz heads into this match after a heavy 8-0 defeat in a friendly against Hoffenheim. They typically employ a 4-3-3 formation that focuses on quick transitions, particularly on the flanks. The attacking trio of Ibou Sané, Giorgi Tsitalshvili, and Cheikh Sabaly poses a significant threat, while Jessy Deminget orchestrates play from midfield, maintaining balance and dictating tempo. All players are fit and available for selection.

Team analysis: Strasbourg

The visitors, Strasbourg, commence their campaign after finishing 7th in the previous season. They enter this fixture on the back of a 3-1 defeat to Galatasaray. Across their last 10 matches in all competitions, Strasbourg has won 5, drawn 2, and lost 3. Their defensive record has been less than sturdy, as they conceded goals in 8 of those matches, but they were able to find the net in 9 of the 10 games. In 15 matches, Strasbourg faced the first goal four times, managing to turn the scoreline just once.

Strasbourg comes into this match following a 0-0 draw in a friendly against Mainz 05. They tend to line up in a classic 4-3-3 formation, with Emanuel Emegha, Dilae Bakwa, and Joaquin Panichelli leading the line. When on the attack, they often focus their efforts down the left flank, with Ishé Samuels-Smith providing useful width. All players are available for this match.
