Metz
Metz are staring down the barrel of relegation with one of Ligue 1's worst records this season.
Metz have managed just three wins all season, accumulating a devastating -44 goal difference that signals deep structural problems at both ends of the pitch. With 17 points from 34 matches, they sit 18th and face a near-certain relegation battle. Adding to their woes, defender Diego Duarte suffered a ruptured ACL in July, ruling him out for several months at a critical moment.
