A fresh Ligue 1 campaign gets underway at Stadium de Toulouse as Toulouse and Lyon go head to head, with both sides having plenty to prove. Given the attacking potential of both sides, we predict a 1-1 draw. Toulouse will be looking to make amends for back-to-back defeats to Elche and HSV in their final warm-up games. Les Pitchouns have strengthened their squad with permanent deals for Thomas Jorgensen, Sion Oppong, and Christ Tape, although key attacker Emersonn has departed for Ipswich Town. Toulouse have scored in all of their last 10 matches, while 80% of those games produced goals at both ends.
Lyon, meanwhile, will have one eye on the Champions League decider against Fenerbahce after a 1-1 draw in the first leg. That could influence their team selection, with Mata and Boudache pushing for starts after impressive substitute appearances in midweek. Czech international Pavel Sulc remains unavailable through injury. Les Gones have struggled badly away from home recently, failing to win any of their last four away matches and collecting just one point.
Toulouse have a 100% BTTS rate at home in their last five and given Lyon's attacking potential, Both Teams to Score bet should be considered. Additionally, Over 2.5 and Over 3.5 goals markets seem interesting as 74% of the last 31 H2H meetings produced 3 or more goals.
This Ligue 1 match will be played on Saturday 22 August 2026 at 19:45.
