Lille vs Toulouse prediction: FRANCE: Ligue 1 betting tips on match 2025-09-13 13:00.
[p]Ligue 1 top scorers Lille look to continue their unbeaten start to the 2025/26 season when Toulouse come to town. [/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]With two wins and a draw in the league to their name so far, Lille have made an excellent start in their pursuit of a return to the UEFA Champions League for next season. Sitting third ahead of this matchday, the hosts’ free-scoring nature has been the main reason for their success so far, netting 11 goals in total, which is their most at this stage of a top-flight campaign since 1949/50. Next up, the target will be clear, to further extend their current seven match unbeaten home league run (W6, D1).[/p]
[p]Visiting Toulouse will have different ideas though, and they arrive here after making their own solid start to their latest top-flight campaign. A 6-3 hammering at the hands of Paris Saint-Germain last time out may have dampened the mood following their two prior victories in the competition, but given the Parisiens obvious star quality, manager Carles MartĂnez Novell will have likely told his side to forget that loss as quickly as possible. Instead his focus will be on this trip to Lille as he looks to help his side to win their opening two away games of a Ligue 1 campaign for only the second time across the last 70 years! [/p]
