Toulouse form and stats

Toulouse, who have the most conceded goals (44) in Ligue 1, have only collected 3 points from their away games in the Ligue 1, after 0-3-7 (10 played). The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Toulouse, who have now gone ten games without a victory. The Lille game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since. The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Toulouse have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone ten consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Brest game.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Ligue 1 home defeat versus Brest with 2-5 on the scoreboard. Prior to that match, the Toulouse manager D. Zanko faced defeat when travelling to St-Pryve St-Hilaire and losing 0-1.

A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Toulouse, as mentioned above. 7 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun?

We have done a similar check as we did with the hometeam, looking up recent matches where Toulouse played away with similar odds. This revealed two games. The visitors overcame the odds to win 0 times, 0 were draws and the home team won as expected 2 times.

Toulouse find the net in their away games, although not all the time. 10 goals from 10 away fixtures in the league. The opposition has been scoring high and low on Toulouse's goalkeeper in away games this season, as they have let in 25 goals in 10 travels.
