PSG vs Toulouse Prediction & Betting Tips - Ligue 1

Prediction published on 12/05/2024, 06:19  by Kennedy Kechula in Ligue 1 Predictions

PSG will be back to domestic action, hosting Toulouse in their final Ligue 1 home match this Sunday. Having already bagged the title, and Toulouse safely in mid-table, there isn’t much to play for in this game. Perhaps PSG will feel motivated by the need to bounce back after three straight winless outings. Despite their gains in the season, the Parisians will feel dejected after a 1-0 home loss to Borussia Dortmund ended their Champions League dreams. A horde of missed chances and hard luck conjured to deny PSG the much-desired European glory. Now they only have the French Cup to play for, with Lyon waiting in the final on May 25th. This match will mark the final time PSG fans get to see Kylian Mbappe at home, the French international having already indicated his intention to leave. As the teams meet for a third time this season, Mbappe will be targeting scoring for the third time against Toulouse this season. He did so in the reverse fixture which ended 1-1 and in their French Cup game which PSG won 2-0. Five draws in their last seven home league games haven't given the fans the desired returns and this will be a chance to finally make it right.

Toulouse aren’t in danger of relegation but will want to rise from their current 11th place. They have 40 points, after 32 matches and aren’t under any pressure coming into this game. Maybe their only concern will be the fact that in the last 10 meetings they haven't been able to beat PSG. They drew just twice in that run and lost eight times. In a season they participated in the Europa League, Toulouse did good balancing to domestic and continental assignments. It was almost going awry between October and December when they failed to win in 11 league games but they arrested it in time. Their 2-1 loss to Montpellier last time out was their first defeat in six league matches. They have three wins in that run and will be glad to be away in this encounter, having excelled on the road lately. Coming into this match, Toulouse have won six of their last seven away league games. It has been a massive improvement considering they failed to win any of their earlier eight away league matches.
