He's also managed to get one shot on target from two attempts. Another player to watch is defender Deiver Andrés Machado Mena, who has a rating of 7.25.

Recent Form

Prediction

Given the current form of both teams and key players' performances, the prediction leans in favor of Metz. The odds suggest a double chance: a draw or a win for Metz. Lens, currently in the relegation zone, will need to put up a strong fight to turn the tables. This game is expected to be a low-scoring one, with less than 2.5 goals predicted for both teams.

In conclusion, the game between Lens and Metz promises to be an exciting one, with Metz having a slight edge. However, in football, anything can happen, and it will ultimately come down to which team can seize their opportunities on the day.
