Toulouse are heading into this match struggling for form. They haven't won in their last three games, drawing twice and losing once, including a defeat to Lyon. In fact, they've only managed one win in their last five matches, so they are not in a good place right now. Lyon, on the other hand, have had a rough start to the new season, losing two of their first three games, but they did end the previous campaign with a big 4-0 win. They are also missing some key players due to injury, which could be a problem.

Looking at the history between these two teams, their recent meetings have been very close and often high-scoring. Four of the last five matches have seen three or more goals, with each team winning two of those. It’s a very tight matchup, but given that Lyon has had the upper hand in recent clashes and Toulouse's poor form, Lyon looks slightly more likely to edge a close and open game.
