Dijon - Metz betting tips and odds

A home win would be a big surprise in this match. Dijon are the underdogs here and it will be a huge surprise if they end up grabbing a win here.

With 2.07 odds for an away win, Metz have a rather clear path to victory. Still, there’s plenty of room for an upset in a match like this, so other options are still worth considering.

Dijon are coming off from a crushing 5:1 home loss against Rennes in the previous round. They managed an even score up until the 45-minute mark, but it all fell apart after that. To be fair, they were up against a vastly superior team, so the previous match can’t be reliably used to judge their form.

Metz are coming off from a crushing defeat at the hands of Paris Saint Germain. The top online bookmakers priced their victory at 13.00 despite the home-field advantage. This assessment turned out to be true: Metz struggled to keep up from the get-go and ended up losing the match 1:3.

The hosts will be looking to cut down on the number of goals they concede. They’ve recorded more than 5 total concessions over the last 3 matches, which is usually a cause for concern.

Considering they conceded more than 5 times in their latest 3 home games, there’s not a lot of confidence in Metz and their defenses. Hopefully, they’ll somehow do better as visitors.

Dijon are currently in the relegation zone and going into a difficult match this Sunday. With barely any matches rounds yet to be played, climbing up seems highly unlikely at this point.

Despite being favourites, Metz couldn’t manage to secure a victory the last time they played against Dijon. This gives the hosts some precedent when it comes to beating the odds, but it’s not a strong case.

Fortunately, none of the teams’ players has been injured or suspended recently. With their full lineups at their disposal, we’re in for an exciting match.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet is an easy tip to offer – it’s a fairly probable outcome with betting odds priced at a comfortable 1.75. More importantly, though, the betting value it offers is surprisingly solid.
