Metz vs AC Ajaccio Prediction & Betting Tips (22 February)

A little just to evolve in the elite and too strong for Ligue 2, FC Metz again justifies its reputation as a team accustomed to the elevator. Relegated from Ligue 1 last spring, the Moselle club today occupies 2nd place in this championship where, with FC Lorient and Paris FC, it seems best armed to try to climb to the upper level. Very solid in recent weeks, Stéphane Le Mignan players have won 4 successes in the last 5 days. And after only being braked by Bastia 1-1, the Grenats resumed their march forward by winning with authority against Clermont 3-1 and against Guingamp 0-3 last weekend. In the ranking, they are in 2nd position, 5 lengths behind the Lorient leader. Of its side, Ajaccio will not be able to apply for a place in the elite next spring.

On the contrary, the ACA will have to remain vigilant in the coming weeks not to fall back into the red zone to avoid a real disillusionment that would represent a descent in National 1. We are not there for the moment for the players of Thierry Debès who are in 13th position of this championship with 2 small units ahead of the barragist, Clermont. The Corsicans are even on a good dynamic since they have just won 4 of their last 5 games. Victorious in front of Caen 1-2, Rodez 1-2 and Clermont 0-1, they had been recalled to order by Guingamp 0-3 before relaunching themselves against Laval 3-0 last weekend.

The Grenats will approach this part without the Senegalese porter Sy and the defender Ismaël Traoré who are still on the side at the moment. The Jallow striker (1 goal and 1 pass) is well restored for this match. The midfielder's trio will undoubtedly be composed by the excellent Deminguet, Stambouli and Huh (4 assists).

The last city also scored its 7th goal of the penalty season last weekend in Guingamp. The young Gueye scored his 3rd goal in 6 games but the goverur Sabaly remained at his total of 10 goals.
