Toulouse returned to Ligue 1 in the 2022/23 season and were in mid-table in the following two seasons, finishing 13th and 11th. Once again, this year, they are looking like a mid-table team as they are sitting in 10th place with 18 points in 14 rounds - 1.29 per game. That is around their point per game from the last season when they had 1.26. Right now, they are five points away from the European spots, and securing Europe will be a challenge.
St Etienne are one of the biggest football clubs in France. Still, their ten league titles happened a long time ago. In recent years, the Greens are not even close to that level even spending the previous two seasons in Ligue 2. This year, their only goal is to survive, but that isn't going according to plan. Right now, they are in 16th place with 13 points in 14 rounds, but on a level with points with Angers, which are in the safe zone. Their main problem this season is an atrocious road record, and in order to have some chance of surviving, they need to fix that urgently.
Toulouse vs St Etienne pick: Under 2.5 goals
Toulouse are among the best teams in Ligue 1 for this type of bet, as 64% of their games finished with fewer than three goals. Only Lens had more games with fewer than three goals this season. Also, in recent home games, they have been exceptional defensively, keeping a clean sheet in the last two matches against Auxerre and Reims.
With only 11 scored goals, St Etienne are tied for the worst offense in the league. And away from home, those offensive struggles are even bigger, considering they failed to score in five out of seven games.
Considering all the above, we believe that an under 2.5 goals bet is the best option for this Ligue 1 tie.

Toulouse team news
After a 2:0 loss against Monaco, coach Carles Martinez spoke to the media. The Spanish coach mostly focused on the situation where he felt the referees missed the penalty for them. He said the referees just dismissed the situation and should have looked more into it. When it came to the game itself, the coach did not speak much but hinted that it was a deserving result at the end.
Coach Martinez should have almost the entire squad available. Only Rasmus Nicolaisen should remain sidelined with a long-term injury.
