Lille hosts Toulouse: home champions chase victory!
Today, September 15, 2025, the two Ligue 1 teams Lille OSC and Toulouse FC will meet at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy. In this game, both teams show different forms, with Lille shining with a strong start to the season. They have won two of three games so far and have secured a place in the top half of the table. Sportskeeda reports that Lille are heading into the game confident after a resounding 7-1 win against Lorient, where all the goals came in the second half. Matias Fernandez-Pardo and Hamza Igamane each contributed two goals to the win.
Toulouse, on the other hand, also have a win under their belt, but recently suffered a heavy defeat against Paris Saint-Germain, which may have dented their confidence a bit. Despite these fluctuations, Toulouse have shown promising performances in past games.
Meeting of the teams
Lille's impressive home series is particularly noteworthy. They have remained unbeaten in the last seven home games against Toulouse, Lille's last at their stadium was a clear 3-0 win. Statistically speaking, Lille have scored in their last 43 home games in Ligue 1, putting them at the top of the list of the top five European leagues.
Personnel situation
The squad situation of both teams could have a decisive influence on the game. Lille are missing Marc-Aurèle Caillard, Thomas Meunier and Ousmane Toure due to injuries. Fortunately, Olivier Giroud and Ethan Mbappé are fit and ready for the game. Things are not looking rosy for the guests at Toulouse either, as Niklas Schmidt is definitely out, while Abu Francis and Rafik Messali still have to undergo a fitness test.
Today's game will be about stabilizing their form for both Lille and Toulouse. Lille will certainly be aiming for a performance like the one they did in their last match against Lorient to gain further confidence. The prediction from the analysis suggests that Lille is favored and could win the game 3-1. Footystats states that 62% of their previous encounters have ended in a goal for both sides - an indication that Toulouse also has a chance.
