Interesting action will be staged in Ligue 1 on Wednesday, as Monaco look to bounce back to form after suffering a recent defeat in the competition. They will be heavily favoured in the betting when they come up against a Toulouse side that are threatened with relegation.
Ligue 1 Preview
The second half of the Ligue 1 season will be all about the race for Champions League qualification. AS Monaco currently sit in a strong position to challenge for a spot, as they sit third in the standings after winning nine of their opening 16 matches. In fact, only PSG have won more victories than the team throughout the opening half of the campaign this term.
However, Monaco will have questions to answer this week in Ligue 1 after dropping to a second defeat in four matches over the previous weekend. It was a really disappointing performance by Monaco in that fixture, as they allowed Lyon to steal the points in the final five minutes. The hosts in that match managed four shots on target, but they weren’t clinical enough in the final third of the field.
This will also be a big fixture for Toulouse in Ligue 1 this weekend, as the side currently sits 15th in the overall standings. They are flirting dangerously with the relegation places at this stage of the campaign, as they sit just a point clear of the relegation playoff spot. However, a return to winning ways could lift them up to 12th in the standings.
But, wins have been hard to come by for Toulouse in recent weeks. They have gone five without a victory in Ligue 1, and they have played out two draws in their last three.
Toulouse vs AS Monaco Head to Head
Toulouse picked up a 2-1 win in the latest match between these sides in June 2023. However, that success ended a seven-match unbeaten record in this fixture for Monaco. The visitors have also won on each of their previous two trips to Toulouse.
Toulouse vs AS Monaco Prediction
Monaco’s recent performance against Lyon was incredibly underwhelming, and a much better display will be needed on Wednesday. But, we could see them raising their performance levels to gain maximum points on the road against Toulouse this week.
