Toulouse
In the previous round, the team played away against Marseille and surprisingly managed to draw with one of the leaders (2-2). However, Carlos Martinez's side has now gone six matches without a win in Ligue 1, suffering two defeats and drawing four times. Due to these disappointing results, the club has dropped to 9th place and is now seven points behind the European competition zone. It's also worth noting that the team has only four wins in the current championship, with only the bottom five clubs winning fewer.
- The team has won only 2 of their last 12 Ligue 1 matches (5 draws and 5 losses).
- Toulouse has not lost in 4 of their last 5 home matches in the championship (1 win and 3 draws).
- The club has scored in 20 of their last 23 home games in Ligue 1.

Guillaume Restes – Dejan Metal, Rasmus Nicolaisen, Charlie Cresswell, Mark McKenzie, Djibril Sidibe – Alexis Vossa, Cristian Casseres, Aron Dønnum – Frank Magri, Emerson Correia da Silva.

Strasbourg
Liam Rosenior's side has suffered two consecutive defeats. First, they lost away to Lens (0-1), and then at home to Brest (1-2). Interestingly, the club had not lost two consecutive Ligue 1 matches since November last year. As a result, the team is now in 8th place, four points behind the Champions League zone. It's also worth noting that Strasbourg has scored 25 goals, which is the fifth-best attack in the championship.
- At least three goals have been scored in 8 of the club's last 10 Ligue 1 games.

- The team has conceded two or more goals in 5 of their last 6 away matches in Ligue 1.
Predicted lineup for Strasbourg (5-4-1)
Mike Penders – Mamadou Sarr, Ben Chilwell, Gela Doué, Ismael Doukouré, Andrew Omobamidele – Samir El M’rabet, Kendry Páez, Sam Amo-Ameyaw, Julio Enciso – Joaquin Panichelli.

Toulouse vs. Strasbourg: Match Prediction
This matchup features opponents who are close in the league standings, with a five-point gap between them. The visitors appear to be more interesting and promising, so they are likely to at least avoid defeat. Strasbourg has already suffered two consecutive losses, which is a poor record for them, so they will certainly strive to return to the fight for a top-four spot in Ligue 1.
Toulouse has only managed to defeat Brest and Metz at home in this campaign. In their last 16 home matches in the championship, the club has won only three times. The hosts lack stability and struggle against higher-ranked opponents, making it unlikely they will secure three points in this encounter. Additionally, in the last four head-to-head meetings in Ligue 1, Strasbourg has won three times, with one match ending in a draw.
My prediction – Strasbourg with a handicap (0)
