Our prediction for this Ligue 1 match:
Sunday’s football game at Stadium Municipal pits together Toulouse and Rennes, the two teams who sit in the opposite halves of the table. Toulouse are safe for now with 29 points on their account, and their performance in a 2-1 loss to PSG was anything but poor. Denis Genreau is a major doubt, but there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
Les Rouges et Noirs, on the other hand, aim to represent France in the Champions League for yet another season, and we are positive that they will adopt yet another attack-minded approach against les Pitchouns. In Martin Terrier’s absence, a man to watch in the away team will be in-form attacker Amine Gouiri, who has found his goal-scoring touch of late. The likes of Christopher Wooh, Hamari Traore, Lorenz Assignon, and Xeka miss out with injuries as well. Anyhow, away win should be considered as Rennes are eager to move closer to the Champions League berth.
Highlighted Player (Flavien Tait):
Born in Longjumeau, France on February 2, 1993, Flavien Tait is a French footballer who plays for Angers as a midfielder. Tait began his youth career at Rodez and in 2010 he moved to Chateauroux. After spending first years of his senior career at Chateauroux, the 175-cm tall footballer joined Angers in 2016 and he has been playing for les Scoistes ever since.
Flavien Tait impressed in the 2017/2018 Ligue 1 campaign and it has to be noted that he scored 4 goals in 34 appearances for Angers in the process. His main position is winger, but he is often used as an attacking midfielder. Flavien Tait’s preferred foot is right and he wears No. 20 jersey at Angers.
His contract with les Scoistes should expire on June 30, 2020. It has to be noted that his market value was €4.5 million on June 4, 2018.Flavien Tait has yet to make his France debut.
Highlighted Team (Toulouse):
Toulouse are a professional football club that compete in Ligue 1. Les Pitchouns are well known for their purple jerseys with white stripes and it has to be noted that they used to wear red and yellow jerseys in the past. Toulouse welcome their opponents at Stadium Municipal and the capacity of the team’s home ground is 33.150. Stadium Municipal was used as a venue for the 1998 FIFA World Cup.
In 1982 the club secured promotion to the Ligue 1 for the first time ever and you should bear in mind that the likes of Jacques Santini and Daniel Jeandupeux were part of the team. A win over Napoli in the round 1 of the 1986/1987 UEFA Cup is considered one of the club’s biggest success as football legend Diego Maradona played for the Italian team back then, attacker Daniel Jeandupeux scored the winner for Toulouse in the penalty shoot-out. Bordeaux are regarded as the club’s fiercest rivals and the two teams face each other in Derby de la Garonne.
