Toulouse
In the last round, Toulouse's three-match clean sheet winning streak in Ligue 1 was snapped as they lost 0-3 to the tournament leaders PSG. Nevertheless, Toulouse retained the 10th spot in the French championship standings, but their gap from the European competition zone widened to four points. Notably, after the heavy defeat to PSG, the team now has a negative goal difference this season in Ligue 1, with 13 goals scored and 14 conceded. It's also worth mentioning that matches involving Toulouse are among the least productive in the current championship, averaging 2.3 goals per game, a figure only lower in Lens' matches (2.1).
- No more than 3 goals have been scored in Toulouse's last 9 matches in the French championship.
- The team has not won in 9 of their last 11 home games in this tournament (4 draws, 5 losses).
- Toulouse has not scored more than 1 goal in 7 of their last 8 home matches in Ligue 1.
Auxerre
Auxerre extended their winning streak in the championship to three matches, defeating Angers 1-0 in their previous game. This is the longest winning streak for the club in the elite French division since April 2023. Their unbeaten run in Ligue 1 has now reached five matches (4 wins, 1 draw). This successful period has allowed Auxerre to closely approach the European competition zone, climbing to 7th place in the championship standings. However, it's worth noting that the club has not performed well away this season, failing to win in 5 of 6 matches (1 draw, 4 losses).
- The club's scoring streak in Ligue 1 stands at 8 matches.
- At least 3 goals have been scored in 9 of Auxerre's last 10 matches in the championship.
- Both teams have scored in Auxerre's last 5 away matches in the elite French division.
Toulouse vs. Auxerre: Match Prediction
Both teams are experiencing successful periods in the French championship. However, Toulouse's winning momentum was halted in the last round, which was expected as they played against the tournament leaders away. I am confident that, with the support of their home crowd, the hosts will strive to return to winning ways, and I expect attacking activity from them. But Auxerre, who have won 4 of their last 5 matches in Ligue 1 (1 draw), are unlikely to slow down. The visitors have been consistently scoring, finding the net in 8 consecutive matches in the French championship.
The hosts, in turn, before their clean sheet defeat to PSG in the last round, had scored in six consecutive Ligue 1 matches. I believe that both opponents will manage to score in this encounter, considering their productive attacking play and less than reliable defense. My prediction for the match: bet on Both teams to score – yes.
