Toulouse form and stats

Toulouse have collected 22 points from their Ligue 1 home games so far after 6-4-6. The home stadium (Stadium de Toulouse) is supposed to be a fortress, but for Toulouse it's been a house of straw as the last four games here have all been lost. Can they turn things around?

Toulouse are returning here after guesting Nantes in a Coupe de France match and winning with a 5-1 scoreline.

In the preceding match a 1-0 victory visiting Lorient.

The Toulouse fans have had their share of opportunities to cheer home goals this season, having seen 26 goals in 16 league matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Toulouse defense is not exactly impregnable. 25 goals conceded from 16 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
