The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Nantes are in the 8th position while the guests worry at 19th.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.

Toulouse, who have the most conceded goals (27) in Ligue 1, only have 0 wins to counter their 4 defeats and 3 draws. It's looking increasingly bleak for Toulouse who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. Lille was the last time a defeat was avoided.

A new game in only three days for Toulouse, the Ligue 1 home match versus Monaco. Busy days.
