Toulouse, Recent FormToulouse will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 1-0 away win against Metz. During that encounter they had 61% possession and had 4 attempts on goal with 2 on target, while their opponents hit 2 of their 14 shots on goal.
Having conceded 7 goals and scored just 3 in their last 6 games, they have been very fortunate to pick up 5 points. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games but have only managed to keep 2 clean sheets in those games.
Having drawn 3 of their last 6 home games they have at least put some points on the board, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
Goalscorer Zakaria Aboukhlal will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 4 goals in his last 6 league matches for Toulouse.
Lens, Recent FormThe Lens players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their home fixture against Paris Saint-Germain recently, that ended in a 2-0 defeat. They came away from that fixture with a 34% share of the possession and clocked up 17 attempts on goal with 5 on target, in comparison to Paris Saint-Germain, who managed 15 attempts on goal, 7 of which were on target.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 8 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 6, and leading to valuable points being dropped. They've kept a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 away games.
Lens will take some comfort from being unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 away games, but with only 2 wins there is some room for improvement.
Wesley Saïd will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Lens.
Toulouse suffered the disappointment of a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Lens the last time they met in the league.
Goals should be on the cards for Les Sang et Or in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against Toulouse in their last 5 meetings together. The Lens defence tends to hold pretty firm when they visit Le Téfécé in the league, with Lens conceding just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings. Lens have managed to keep a clean sheet against Toulouse in 4 of their previous 5 meetings.
In the last 2 league meetings between the teams at Stadium de Toulouse, Lens has taken all 3 points and has not lost away to Toulouse in 3 games.
Toulouse manager Carles Martínez Novell has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Zakaria Aboukhlal (Knee), Mikkel Desler (Calf) and Niklas Schmidt (Physical discomfort) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Franck Haise has a number of injury concerns in his Lens squad to contend with: Ruben Aguilar (Knee), Jimmy Cabot (Cruciate ligament), Wuilker Faríñez (Cruciate ligament), Massadio Haïdara (Thigh) and Déiver Machado (Groin)
