Les Parisiens will want to continue with their unbeaten run in the French top-flight even without some of their star players.

PSG will try to keep up the good work this Wednesday when they clash against Metz in what should be an entertaining Ligue 1 game for fans to watch.

Les Parisiens will get to this game to try and end the controversy generated by Messi's substitution and subsequent tantrum, which hinted at some problems inside the team's dressing room under Mauricio Pochettino.

On the other hand, the hosts will be desperate to leave a lasting impression in this game, which could get them in more problems considering their current position in the tournament. Right now, Metz are ranked 20th in Ligue 1, with only three draws in six games and thirteen goals against them. Whatever hopes for a good result Les Grenats may have will be fueled by Fabien Centonze's performance, since he is the team's goalscoring leader with two goals.

As for PSG, Pochettino's crew knows that anything other than a win in this game would be considered a failure, especially considering their unbeaten record after six games. Kylian Mbappé has been quite influential for Pochettino's team, having a hand in seven of the team's 18 goals in the tournament (four goals, three assists). The Frenchman's presence will be enough to keep Metz's defense busy even if Lionel Messi is unavailable for this game.

The clash between the top-ranked team in Ligue 1 and the worst side in the French top-flight could have a few surprises in store. Let's have a look at the general aspects of this game ahead of its kickoff.
