Football – France – Ligue 1 Betting Tips

The French top flight has a full slate of fixtures in midweek, and my first pick concerns bottom of Ligue 1, Metz, taking on fourth placed Marseille at their Stade Saint-Symphorien with the hosts desperate to break a seven match losing streak.

Metz sit bottom of the pile with just four points to their name, thanks to a win and a draw away from home at Angers and Toulouse respectively, as they possess a better record away from home than on home ground – just.

The hosts have lost all seven of their league matches at home to date with an appalling record of  0-0-7  3/17 as they’ve not only scored the least goals at home in the division, but have also conceded the most too, and since their win at Angers back in mid-September, Metz have lost seven of their subsequent eight league matches.

Visitors Marseille currently sit in fourth place in Ligue 1 but they have a great opportunity to leapfrog the likes of Lyon and Monaco into second spot, depending upon three points tonight and other results going their way.

Marseille registered a 1-0 home win over Guingamp on the weekend to extend their unbeaten run in the French top flight to nine matches, and with a fairly solid away record of  4-2-1  13/12 behind them, they certainly look the favourites to take the spoils in this clash.

And although Metz recently broke the stranglehold Marseille had had over them in previous encounters by beating them 1-0 at home back in February this year, Marseille had won the previous six clashes on the trot, and are likely to resume their dominance over Metz this evening.
