Reims - Toulouse predictions

Beating Toulouse will not be easy, but we believe Reims are more than capable of doing so. The matchup is somewhat balanced, after all, so all three possible outcomes are still on the table.

Toulouse have their work cut out for them this Sunday. Most bookmakers online see them as the stronger team, made evident by the 2.31 betting odds for an away win. That’s a fairly slim advantage, though.

Reims are coming off from a downright impressive performance against Lens in the previous round. Not only did they win an away game against almost impossible odds, but they did so with a considerable 0:2 difference. They took the lead in the early game and only increased their advantage from there.

Toulouse’s previous outing in the Ligue 1 did not end in their favour. The opponents Lille took the lead during the first half, and Toulouse stayed behind until the very end, losing the game 1:2.

With 9 goals in their own net over the last 3 matches, Toulouse’s defence leaves a lot to be desired.

Hopes of a top-half finish are slowly fading away for Reims. They are currently in 15th place in the Ligue 1 standings. Much closer to the relegation zone than to top-half places, the hosts will need to roll up their sleeves in the closing stages of the season.

This is the second time we’re seeing these two teams clash in this Ligue 1 season. Toulouse won the first time, though it was a narrow victory in a home game. That said, the 3.35 odds for them winning still mean that they’re the favourites.

We recommend that you back Toulouse in a Draw No Bet wager. The risks are still quite minimal due to the market, but there’s still plenty of betting value to make the wager worthwhile.
