THE LOWDOWN

TOULOUSE

Balancing UEFA Europa League commitments against Ligue 1 football was always going to be a difficult task for Toulouse with their European qualification perhaps coming ahead of schedule. However, after a tricky few months, they have grown into the season and now begin the weekend looking to push into the top-half of the table.

The home team come into this one on the back of an impressive 3-0 hammering of Clermont in their most recent outing, last weekend, with a brace from Vincent Sierro either side of a goal by Thijs Dallinga. That victory means Toulouse have now suffered just two losses in their last eight matches across all competitions.

STRASBOURG

Strasbourg are one of a couple of sides in France’s top-flight that are being regularly blighted by off-the-pitch protests as a result of an American-led takeover of their club that has essentially made them a feeder club to Premier League opposition with that being Chelsea in this instance. They have also underperformed on the pitch to go with that.

The Alsace-based club, who have persisted with former Nice and Crystal Palace boss Patrick Vieira, begin the weekend in the bottom-half of the table but they have managed victories either side of the March international break which has helped them ease themselves away from the bottom thre and the relegation places.

THE TEAM NEWS

TOULOUSE

Toulouse have no injury concerns or suspension issues for this weekend’s visit of Strasbourg so they will be able to name an unchanged eleven for this one.

PREDICTED XI (3-4-2-1): Restes; Costa, Nicolaisen, Mawissa; Desler, Sierro, Casseres Jr, Suazo; Magri, Gboho; Dallinga

UNAVAILABLE:

STRASBOURG

Strasbourg are without several players for this weekend’s visit to Toulouse as Lebo Mothiba and on-loan Angelo Gabriel are among those sidelined for Strasbourg.

PREDICTED XI (3-4-2-1): Bellaarouch; Guilbert, Perrin, Sow; Senaya, Santos, Diarra, Delaine; Bakwa, Gameiro; Emegha

UNAVAILABLE: Sissoko (Injured), Angelo Gabriel (Injured), Sahi (Injured), Mothiba (Injured)

THE PREDICTION

This one has the potential to be a bit of a thriller for the neutral at Stadium de Toulouse this weekend between two teams set to finish the campaign firmly ensconced in the middle-of-the-table. Toulouse have really find a groove in the second-half of this season, whilst Strasbourg have an abundance of talent that has been generally underperforming throughout the campaign. Both teams scoring does look a good bet for this one, though.

TIP: BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE
