Our prediction for this Ligue 1 match:
After failing to win the previous four league matches, Toulouse will look to return to winning ways in the Ligue 1 when they take on Rennes on Matchday 16. Les Pitchouns suffered a 3-0 loss to Lyon at the weekend, but it has to be noted that they missed a couple of clear-cut opportunities to score in the first half. Aron Donnum misses out through suspension, while both Oliver Zanden and Zakaria Aboukhlal are sidelined with injuries.
Les Rouges et Noirs, on the other hand, aim to recover from back-to-back defeats to Marseille and Monaco, but beating Toulouse on the road is easier said than accomplished. Taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. Rennes boss Julien Stephan has a luxury to field the best possible side against Toulouse as both Nemanja Matic and Christopher Wooh are back from suspension.

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.

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.
