A Sports Betting Pick by ArmchairPunter
Football : France: Ligue 1
Venue: Stade de la Meinau
Sunday 16th March 2025, 1615hrs
Strasbourg extended their unbeaten run in the French top flight to five games overall last weekend with a 1-0 win away from home at Nantes, and the upcoming hosts will now return to the home surroundings of their Stade de la Meinau for this forthcoming clash against mid-table side Toulouse.
Four wins within their last five games will give Strasbourg plenty of reasons to feel upbeat about their chances here on Sunday afternoon having previously accounted for the likes of Montpellier, Lens, Auxerre and Nantes respectively, the latter three wins all being achieved on the road.
The bigger picture shows Strasbourg have lost just once in their previous 12 games overall in Ligue 1 which includes collecting eight wins, while results at home have seen only one loss within their last 12 home games.
Toulouse bring an unbeaten three-game sequence into this upcoming clash at the Stade de la Meinau as the visitors have posted recent back-to-back wins against Le Havre and Angers in 4-1 and 4-0 victories respectively, along with a point gained in a 1-1 draw at home with Monaco last time out in Ligue 1.
The visitors had previously failed to win any of their preceding six league games in the French top flight but Carles Martínez’s side have also strung together a five-match unbeaten run on their travels as well, including a 1-0 win at Lens, along with points gained in useful draws at Lyon and Auxerre.
The wider picture shows Toulouse have been handed just four defeats within their last 16 outings on their travels in Ligue 1 and this sort of form suggests the visitors stand a decent chance of getting something out of this upcoming encounter.
The Betting Verdict
Both Strasbourg and Toulouse have produced encouraging results recently in the domestic top flight and as such, this could end all-square with Toulouse being backed with the handicap.
