This Ligue 1 match offers a platform for Metz and Lens’s goal-scorers to step up and leave their mark on the contest. Metz’s top finisher Gauthier Hein and Habib Diallo have played important roles in ensuring their attack, crafted under Stephane Le Mignan’s leadership, remains effective. In Ligue 1, Hein has been Metz’s standout scorer with one goal, while also leading the team in assists, having set up two goals this campaign. Metz have also relied on Ibou Sane, Boubacar Traore and Sadibou Sane to energize their attack through key shots and passes.

Meanwhile, Adrien Thomasson and Wesley Said have been pivotal for Lens’s attack, guided by Pierre Sage, combining to deliver important goals and assists. Edouard has already scored three goals in Ligue 1 this season, while Thomasson remains their top assist provider in the competition with four. Lens’s attacking depth is further showcased by Rayan Fofana, Florian Thauvin and Morgan Guilavogui, who have each made valuable contributions this season.
