Ligue 1 is back in action with another round of fixtures this weekend as Toulouse take on Christophe Galtier’s PSG in an important clash at the Parc des Princes on Sunday.
PSG vs Toulouse Preview
Toulouse are currently in 12th place in the Ligue 1 table and have not been at their best this season. The away team defeated Troyes 4-1 last week and will be looking to achieve a similar result in this game.
On the other hand, PSG are currently at the top of the league table and have been flattering to deceive in recent weeks. The Parisian giants lost 3-1 against Montpellier in their previous game and have a point to prove this weekend.
PSG vs Toulouse and key numbers
- PSG have a great record against Toulouse and have won 27 of the 40 games played by the two teams, compared to Toulouse’s eight wins.
- PSG have won their last five Ligue 1 games against Toulouse without conceding a single goal and could secure a run of six such victories against a top-flight opponent for the first time in their history.
- After winning just four of 12 home games against Toulouse in Ligue 1, PSG have won 10 of their last 11 such games in the competition.
- Toulouse have taken 29 points from 21 Ligue 1 games this season – their best result at this stage of the competition since 2012-13.
- PSG are unbeaten in their last 32 Ligue 1 home games – the best such run in Europe’s top five leagues.
Forecast PSG-Toulouse
PSG have one of the best squads in the world at their disposal, but they will have to be without several key players in this game. With Neymar and Kylian Mbappe ruled out this weekend, Lionel Messi will again have to pull the strings for his side.
Toulouse have a poor record against PSG and will need a miracle to take something away from this game. PSG is the better team on paper and should be able to win this game.
Prediction: PSG 3-0 Toulouse
