Dembélé, Denayer and Paqueta found the back of the net while Diallo pulled one back late in extra time to make the score-line look a tad better. His strike proved to be a consolation effort as Strasbourg’s inconsistent season continues.
On the other hand, Metz is eyeing a first win of the Ligue 1 season and hope to do so here.
In their last match, they were beaten 2-0 by Troyes at home with Rodrigues and Chavalerin scoring in the second half to inflict a second defeat on Metz this season.

Prediction: Strasbourg 1-0 Metz
With neither side looking in good form, this is set to be a closely-fought match.
The inconsistencies are hampering either’s progress but yet we should see the home side clinch the points.
A win under their belt this season gives them the marginal confidence which should help and with the crowd support aiding them, a win is paramount.
Players to watch out for: Aholou, Thomasson, Sarr and Niane.
