Lens - Metz betting tips and odds

A home win should not be questioned in this game. Lens are seen as huge favourites to register an easy win against Metz and we recommend you take the generous offer of 1.52.

The current perspective makes the situation plain as day. Given the superiority of Lens and the 6.40 odds given to Metz to win, it is clear that anything but a home win would be a stunning upset.

Lens are coming on the back of an away draw (:) in the previous round against Monaco . The score was tied at both half-time and the final whistle, which isn’t too bad for Lens considering the 2.22 odds on them.

Metz are coming off of a minor success, relatively speaking. They secured a 2:2 draw against Reims, who were tagged as hard favourites going in, but never managed to pull ahead.

With more than 5 conceded goals over their latest 3 fixtures, Lens’s performance leaves something to be desired. That said, savvy punters could be able to exploit this – think BTTS or Over 5 Goals markets, for example.

If they wish to record any sort of decent result this year, the hosts want to take points where they can find them. This matchup is favourable for them, but their position on the table tells us they’ve had a tumultuous season so far.

The visitors are at a clear disadvantage in a matchup like this, so moving up from their current table position doesn’t seem likely. They’re currently sitting at spot number 13th. On the bright side, most of the season is yet to be played, so they may realize their Europa ambitions yet.

Sunday's matchup will see both teams at full strength, free of injuries and suspensions.

An Over 3.5 Goals wager here can net you considerably better results than the Over 2.5 counterpart, and the probability of winning remains almost as strong. The 1 odds offered at 10Bet are great for value, too.
