Toulouse
In the last round, Toulouse's three-match winning streak in Ligue 1 ended with a 0-3 defeat to PSG, the league leaders. Despite this, Toulouse retained their 10th position in the French championship standings, although their gap to the European competition zone increased to four points. Following the heavy defeat to PSG, the team now has a negative goal difference for the current Ligue 1 season, standing at 13:14. It's also worth noting that matches involving Toulouse are among the lowest-scoring in the current championship, averaging 2.3 goals per game, with only Lens having a lower average (2.1).
- No more than three goals have been scored in Toulouse's last nine Ligue 1 matches.
- The team has not won in nine of their last 11 home games in this tournament (4 draws, 5 losses).
- Toulouse has not scored more than one goal in seven of their last eight home matches in Ligue 1.
Auxerre
Auxerre extended their winning streak in the championship to three matches by defeating Angers 1-0 in their last game. This is the club's longest winning streak in the French top division since April 2023. Their unbeaten run in Ligue 1 has now stretched to five games (4 wins, 1 draw). This successful period has allowed Auxerre to move closer to the European competition zone, climbing to 7th place in the championship standings. However, it's important to note that the club has struggled away from home this season, failing to win in five of six matches (1 draw, 4 losses).
- The club's goal-scoring streak in Ligue 1 stands at eight matches.
- At least three goals have been scored in nine of Auxerre's last ten league games.
- Both teams have scored in Auxerre's last five away matches in the French top division.
Toulouse vs. Auxerre: Match Prediction
Both teams are enjoying successful periods in the French championship. However, Toulouse's winning run was halted in the last round, which was expected as they played against the league leaders away. I'm confident that with the support of their home crowd, the hosts will aim to get back to winning ways and will be active in attack. But Auxerre, having won four of their last five Ligue 1 matches (1 draw), is unlikely to slow down. The visitors have been consistently scoring, finding the net in eight consecutive French championship games.
The hosts, on the other hand, scored in six straight Ligue 1 matches before their goalless defeat to PSG in the last round. I believe both teams will manage to score in this match, given their attacking prowess and less-than-solid defenses. My match prediction: Both teams to score – yes
