Strasbourg vs Toulouse Prediction and Betting Tips | August 27th 2023
The French Ligue 1 returns with a fresh set of fixtures as Strasbourg and Toulouse go head-to-head at the Stade de la Meinau on Sunday.
Patrick Vieira’s men failed to win both home and away meetings between the sides in the league last season and will head into the weekend looking to get one over the visitors.
Strasbourg were handed their first defeat of the season last Sunday when they were beaten 3-0 by Monaco at the Stade Louis II.
Prior to that, Vieira’s side kicked off the new Ligue 1 campaign with a 2-1 victory over Olympique Lyon on August 13 courtesy of goals from Jean-Ricner Bellegarde and Lebo Mothiba.
Strasbourg now return home, where they are unbeaten in their last three league matches, picking up two wins and one draw since the start of May.
Toulouse, on the other hand, turned in a resilient team performance last Saturday as they came from behind to salvage a 1-1 draw against defending champions Paris Saint-Germain.
This followed a 2-1 victory over Nantes in the 2023-24 Ligue 1 curtain-raiser on August 13 courtesy of second-half strikes from Zakaria Aboukhlal and Rasmus Nicolaisen.
With last weekend’s result, Toulouse have now gone unbeaten in their last seven Ligue 1 matches, stretching back to a 1-0 loss against Lens on May 2.
