Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The stats suggest there's no obvious winner in this fixture, but there's plenty of reasons to believe that Lyon and Toulouse will score at least a couple of goals between them. That has been the case when they've gone head-to-head in years gone by, and neither Pierre Sage or Carles Martínez Novell has subjected their supporters to too many 0-0s of late either. The bookmakers predict over 1.5 goals too, with best odds of 1.22 equating to about a 80% probability.
