Toulouse form and stats

1 victory, 1 draw and 1 defeat. That’s what Toulouse have to build on here at Stade Robert Barran in the Ligue 2.

A nice win for Toulouse last time playing, versus Auxerre. That was also a home game and the match ended 3-1 with Steven Moreira, Rhys Healey and Branco Van den Boomen scoring for the victors. Preceding that game was the away draw at Clermont that finished 1-1.

The Toulouse fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 3 in 3 matches. Toulouse have only conceded 2 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Troyes form and stats

It's not happening yet for Troyes on their Ligue 2 travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different? Troyes seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

Two away games in a row for Troyes, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 1-2 versus Auxerre in the Ligue 2. That result followed a home victory 2-0 versus Pau.

2 goals so far away for Troyes, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 4. All from 2 league matches away.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last ten meetings: six - three - one (Toulouse wins - draws - Troyes wins). As for goals, five matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), five had two or less.
