Toulouse vs Strasbourg prediction 06.11.2026 | Ligue 1

Toulouse have been between 9th and 13th place in the last four seasons and have been consistently between 42 and 48 points. This season, they have been super inconsistent and generally haven't been great. After the first nine rounds, they sit in 12th place with 10 points from nine rounds. That is slightly worse than their usual point per game in previous seasons. Their only two wins of the season came against the last-placed Le Havre and the second-worst team in the league, Le Mans. So, these matches against the teams from the lower half of the league table are super important. 

Rafik Messali missed the previous game against Toulouse due to a leg injury and will most likely remain sidelined for a long time. He will likely miss at least the next two months. Moreover, midfielder Aron Donnum should miss the game due to a suspension after accumulating yellow cards.

Strasbourg had a pretty good start to the season, especially considering a few key players left, alongside coach Gary O'Neil. Still, after an initial great start, they went on a four-game losing streak before finally winning 5:1 vs Auxerre in the previous round. Just like Toulouse, they collected 10 points from the first nine matches, but most of their good games came at home. Therefore, it will be interesting to see whether they can collect points against out-of-form Toulouse. 

After a win against Auxerre, coach Hugo Oliveira spoke to the media. He said there is a massive difference in their performances at home and away, and called on the team to be more consistent. The coach was happy with the win but also said they had some defensive issues in the game, which they have to fix moving forward.
