Over 2.5 Goals

Metz sit 18th in the table after 7 games, averaging 0.8 goals scored and 2.6 conceded per home match this season. Lens are 2nd after 7 games, averaging 2.2 scored and 1.7 conceded on the road. Metz have won 0/10 home games (0%) this season; Lens have won 3/10 on the road (30%). There's no dominant edge either way.
