Ligue 1 is well underway in France as champions Paris Saint-Germain welcome FC Metz to the Parc des Princes. Follow along with all of the action wherever you are with our PSG vs Metz live stream guide.

Both sides are yet to earn a point in this 2020/21 Ligue 1 campaign after two games. After a dismal start, both sides will be hoping to get their first win in this Wednesday evening tie.

It was a chaotic affair in the last outing for PSG. The team suffered a 1-0 defeat to Marseille in a Le Classique game that saw the referee brandish 14 yellow cards and five red cards. Due to the sendings off, manager Thomas Tuchel is without Layvin Kurzawa, Leandro Paredes, and star forward Neymar. After a domestic treble last term, the Parisians will be hoping to get back to winning ways as they continue their title defense.

Similarly, FC Metz have lost their opening games with two 1-0 defeats against Monaco and Lille. Les Grenats finished 11 points above the relegation zone last season and would not have been expected to take any points away from the Champions in tonight's game, though Vincent Hognon's men will want to try and capitalize on a tumultuous Paris side.
