Saint-Etienne are not used to playing between two leagues, this season the Greens have a chance to return to Ligue 1 again, the team had a very good season, falling just 3 points behind the direct promotion zone, losing in the final round.
Metz managed with great difficulty to finish the regular season in 16th place and qualify for the knockout rounds, rather than immediately drop into Ligue 2.
There is no clear favourite in this pairing, although Metz look a bit preferable in terms of squad quality, but Saint-Etienne will try to make the most of the home match, although we expect both sides to score.
Prediction: both teams to score. We recommend the “BTTS - Yes” bet, odds 1.91
