• Bookmakers are siding decisively with one team. Metz is the shortest price on a book of 1.75 / 3.20 / 4.20 (1 / X / 2), an implied 50.9%. Across the three outcomes the book reads 50.9% / 27.9% / 21.2% on an overround of 12.2%.

• The draw is unusually well backed at 3.20 (27.9%), which normally points to a cagey, low-scoring game rather than an open one.

• Metz read L-D-L-W-D-D across their last 6 in all competitions, most recent first (1W 3D 2L) — patchy.

• Sochaux read D-D-W-D-D-W across their last 6 in all competitions, most recent first (2W 4D 0L) — patchy.
