Metz predicted XI v Marseille: Benjamin Stambouli returns | OneFootball

FC Metz will welcome back a key player, Benjamin Stambouli, for the visit to face Olympique de Marseille at the Vélodrome on Friday night. 

Metz are missing players in the midfield, with Believe Munongo and Boubacar Traoré both out of the game against OM, however, there are returnees in the form of Stambouli, who had missed the club’s previous seven matches, and Alpha Touré, who missed last weekend’s draw against FC Nantes.

Stambouli’s return has been slightly hurried. Metz, currently rock bottom of Ligue 1 with six games remaining, are in desperate need of a win, having failed to register one in their last 16 games in the league. Even so, Stambouli is not expected to start against OM on Friday night.
