Toulouse form and stats

Toulouse have an excellent away record in the Ligue 2 so far with 4-2-1 from 7 games. Winning streaks in away matches are not that common, but Toulouse are close to a proper streak after winning their two previous away games.

Toulouse had fun at their own home (Stade du Hameau) last time out, beating Le Havre 4-3. Rhys Healey (2), Stijn Spierings and Amine Adli scored. Ahead of that match was the victory versus Châteauroux at their stadium, the result 3-0.

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? Late drama in the previous game, when Stijn Spierings scored the winning goal eight minutes into stoppage time to defeat Le Havre.

Toulouse are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 13 times in 7 away games so far. Toulouse have conceded 8 goals in these away matches.
