The Ligue 1 league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. These two teams are placed 15th and 13th respectively.

Toulouse form and stats

Still no away game victory in the Ligue 1 for Toulouse with 1 draw and 2 losses from their first 3 attempts.

Toulouse has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Saint-Etienne for a Ligue 1 game that ended a draw (2-2). A home win before that, celebrating 2-0 vs Amiens SC.
