Bookmaker ratings: Prediction one: Toulouse to win – 2.04
Bookmaker ratings: Prediction two: Toulouse goals handicap (0) – 1.49
Les Violets have been particularly strong at home for a while now and last season they went on a run of 14 wins in 19 matches.
We think home advantage will be decisive in favour of Toulouse.
As we mentioned before, Toulouse as a home team, they are quite strong. We expect that they have enough power to cover 0 goals handicap in this encounter.
The newly-promoted Toulouse have made a strong Ligue 1 campaign start (W1, D1). Last Sunday, Les Violets recorded their first top-flight win since October 2019, beating Troyes 3:0.
The fact that Toulouse are now in 4th place will give Philippe Montanier’s players more confidence. Meanwhile, it should be noted that Les Violets last attained successive Ligue 1 wins back in August 2018.
On the other hand, Lorient players had more time to rest, as their last week’s match against Lyon was postponed.
Coming into this match, Les Merlus kicked off their Ligue 1 campaign with a shock win against Rennes (1:0).
As a result, Lorient got a chance to start a top-flight season with two wins; something never managed in any of their last 15 Ligue 1 campaigns.
Nathan Ngoumou has a hamstring injury and remains a doubt for this match.
There are no reported injuries or suspensions for Lorient.
Toulouse: Dupe; Sylla, Nicolaisen, Rouault, Desler, Spierings, Boomen, Ratao, Dejaegere, Aboukhlal, Dallinga
Lorient: Mvogo; Talbi, Goff, Laporte, Kalulu, Innocent, Abergel, Diarra, Lauriente, Kone, Moffi
