As Paris Saint-Germain prepare to host FC Metz in an upcoming Ligue 1 match at the Parc des Princes, anticipation is high for what looks to be an interesting match. The huge contrast in their recent performances and league standings adds an element of curiosity to this matchup.
PSG are currently sitting top of the Ligue 1 table, rejoicing in the glory of an unbeaten run over their last 11 games. On the other hand, FC Metz finds themselves positioned 14th, with a recent struggle of three consecutive defeats and a lack of goals.
In their last head-to-head battle, during the 2021-2022 season, PSG displayed their superiority with a 5-0 victory over Metz at the Parc des Princes.
The return of defensive pieces such as Achraf Hakimi and Milan Skriniar will give Paris more strength at the back, fortifying the team's defense. PSG will be without Gianluigi Donnarumma because of suspension and also with an injury list featuring players like Fabian Ruiz, Nuno Mendes, Keylor Navas, Arnau Tenas and Ousmane Dembélé.
On the other side, FC Metz comes to the match without Oscar Estupinan and Ababacar Lo. Their strategy will probably be a 4-3-3 formation and will try containing PSG's offensive power.
The match between the two at the Parc des Princes will be an interesting battle. PSG will try and close out the year on a high and continue their streak while Metz will try to emerge from their recent struggles.
