Toulouse come into this with mixed recent league form, but they have at least shown they can score in their last three league matches. Olympique Lyonnais arrive in better shape, with four wins from their last five in the league and a run that includes beating Paris Saint Germain away. That points to Lyon having the stronger momentum, although Toulouse’s home draw with Monaco suggests they can make this awkward.
The head-to-head record is fairly competitive, with Toulouse winning the most recent meeting away from home and the sides also drawing in January. Even so, Lyon have had the better overall results across the last five league games and have been more reliable at both ends. If Toulouse can get Jacen Russell-Rowe involved early, they have a route into the game, but Lyon’s recent scoring form makes them the more convincing side on paper. Match Prediction: Toulouse 1-2 Olympique Lyonnais
Form Guide & Team Overview
Toulouse
Toulouse’s league form has been inconsistent, with one win, one draw and three defeats in their last five. The most recent result was a 2-1 win away at Strasbourg, which followed a 2-2 home draw with Monaco, so there are signs they can compete against stronger opposition.
Before that, though, Toulouse lost three in a row in the league, including a 0-4 home defeat to LOSC Lille and a 1-3 loss away to Paris Saint Germain. The all-competitions table shows the same pattern, with the Coupe de France loss to Lens adding to a run where they have been conceding too many goals.

Olympique Lyonnais
Olympique Lyonnais are in much better league form, with four wins and one draw from their last five. Their latest result was a 4-2 home win over Rennes, and that came after a 3-2 home victory against Auxerre and a 2-1 away win at Paris Saint Germain.
They have also kept things solid enough to beat Lorient 2-0 and draw 0-0 away at Angers SCO in that run. Across the recent results, Lyon have been scoring regularly and have not been relying on narrow margins alone, which gives them a stronger recent profile than Toulouse.

Team News & Injury Report
Toulouse

Olympique Lyonnais
- Orel Mangala (Dead Leg)
Lineups & Tactical Setup
Toulouse (3-4-2-1)
Predicted lineup: Guillaume Restes (Goalkeeper), Charlie Cresswell (Defender), Mark McKenzie (Defender), Rasmus Nicolaisen (Defender), Alexis Vossah (Midfielder), Aron Dønnum (Midfielder), Cristian Cásseres Jr. (Midfielder), Dayann Methalie (Midfielder), Jacen Russell-Rowe (Attacker), Santiago Hidalgo (Attacker), Yann Gboho (Attacker)
Toulouse’s 3-4-2-1 should give them a compact base with Jacen Russell-Rowe supported by runners from deeper areas. The wing-backs and central midfielders will need to help them progress the ball quickly if they are to trouble Lyon’s back four.
Olympique Lyonnais (4-2-3-1)
Predicted lineup: Dominik Greif (Goalkeeper), Abner (Defender), Ainsley Maitland-Niles (Defender), Clinton Mata (Defender), Moussa Niakhaté (Defender), Afonso Moreira (Midfielder), Corentin Tolisso (Midfielder), Endrick (Midfielder), Khalis Merah (Midfielder), Tyler Morton (Midfielder), Roman Yaremchuk (Attacker)
Olympique Lyonnais’ 4-2-3-1 gives them a clear structure, with Roman Yaremchuk leading the line and support arriving from the three behind him. The double pivot should help them control transitions and give the wide and central attackers a platform to press Toulouse’s back three.
Key Battles & Players to Watch
