When it comes to streaming your iTunes Match songs in lossless audio, you'll simply want to remove any previously-downloaded version in order to stream from the Apple Music catalog. If necessary, you may search for the song in your Music app to ensure it's streaming the lossless version from Apple Music.

Let us know if this helps, or if you've got any questions.

Take care!
