"Metz" is still from the Premier League, and "Bastia" was not a strong mid-table team even in the second division last season. We believe that the visitors will be powerless against the newcomer to the national championship and will lose to them, suffering a fiasco in the very first round.
Our prediction is a Metz victory with odds of 1.96

The visitors are showing super efficiency, and Metz, as one of the favorites of the national championship, will clearly not sit in their penalty area. Let's bet that they will make quite a few corners between them.
