Ajaccio will be looking to maintain their unbeaten run at home when they play host to Metz on Monday evening.
Ajaccio go into Monday's clash on the back of successive defeats after losing to Amiens SC and Guingamp in their recent outings. That run has seen the Bears drop to the bottom four of the table, but they will fancy their chances against Metz on Monday given how well they have performed at home recently. All three of Mathieu Chabert's side's wins this season have come at home and they have not lost any of their five matches.
Metz are another Ligue 1 side who have done very well at home this season. The visitors won each of their last three games at the Stade Saint-Symphorien, scoring ten goals and conceding just two, but they have been unable to replicate that form away from home. Stéphane Le Mignan's side go into Monday's clash on the back of three successive away defeats and worse still, have failed to score in each of the last two.
Ajaccio vs Metz Betting Tips: Under 2.5 goals
The lack of goals has been the major headline in meetings between Ajaccio and Metz at the Stade François Coty and each of the last three were very tight. Under one goal was seen in each of the last three meetings and none of the last produced more than two goals.
Ajaccio have also been very solid defensively at home so far this season. L'ours conceded not more than one goal in all their five games at this ground so far this season and bets on under 2.5 goals were won in all but one of those fixtures.
- Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals
- Ajaccio vs Metz prediction: 1-0

Metz team news
Metz didn’t register any injuries in the defeat to Red Star last week, but head coach Stéphane Le Mignan is expected to make changes to his XI.
Having featured as substitutes in that game, the likes of Morgan Bokele Mputu, Kevin Van Den Kerkhof and Joel Asoro are among those who could benefit from this reshuffle.
