In the latest face-off on Matchday 10 of Ligue 1, Metz and Le Havre were unable to find the back of the net, concluding their meeting in a 0-0 draw.

Metz, with this result, continues to languish in the lower echelons of the table, currently positioned 16th with a record of 2 wins, 3 draws, and 5 losses, accumulating 9 points. On the other hand, Le Havre stands slightly higher at 13th, having secured 2 wins, 5 draws, and 3 losses, tallying up 11 points.

In a season where finding the net has been a struggle for both teams, this game was no different. Le Havre, in particular, has been facing a goal drought, failing to score in half of their games this season – the highest such instance in Ligue 1. Their barren run has now extended to 4 games, marking their longest goalless streak since records from 2014/2015.

Despite the lack of goals, Le Havre's Gautier Lloris was active on the ball, attempting a commendable 79 passes during the match – the most by any Le Havre player this season in Ligue 1. However, this midfield activity didn't translate into goals, adding up to a disheartening 489 minutes without a goal for the side.

Metz, meanwhile, has its own set of problems. The team hasn't tasted victory in their last 5 games, echoing memories of their extended winless streak from 23rd January to 1st May 2022, when they went 14 games without a win. Goalscoring has been a persistent issue for them as well, with the team failing to score in 4 of their 10 games so far.

On a brighter note, defensively, Le Havre showcased resilience. They've managed to keep a clean sheet in 4 of their 10 games, with only Nice (7) and Lille (5) surpassing them in that regard in Ligue 1 this season.
