For those looking to place bets on Wednesday’s games, we’ve highlighted some of the most enticing Ligue 1 betting tips.
18:00 Metz vs Lens
Metz, back in Ligue 1 this season, are struggling and are considered strong candidates for relegation. Coming off a humiliating 6-1 defeat to Lille, they sit at the bottom of the table, seven points from safety. With just two points from nine matches, Metz faces a tough challenge. Their defense has been leaky, conceding 26 goals already this season.
On the other hand, Lens has been a surprise package this season, sitting just one point off the top of the table. With a string of impressive performances, including a 3-1 win over Marseille, Lens will be looking to continue their good form. They have scored freely and will be aiming for another victory.
