PSG vs Toulouse prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups - November 22, 2024
A highly anticipated Friday fixture sees PSG hosting Toulouse in Ligue 1 action. Will the visitors manage to put up a fight against the league leaders? Here's a detailed match analysis and betting prediction.
PSG
PSG leads Ligue 1 confidently, sitting atop the table with a 6-point cushion after 11 matches. With the departure of some high-profile stars, the Parisian side seems to have found better team synergy, with players stepping up to deliver in a more balanced system.
In their most recent outing, PSG secured a 4-2 away victory against Angers, scoring all four goals in the first half. However, conceding two late goals in added time showed some defensive lapses. This was PSG's fourth consecutive win, and they remain the only unbeaten side in the league. On the downside, PSG's Champions League campaign has been underwhelming, with just four points from four games.
Toulouse
Toulouse endured a rough start to the season, collecting only 5 points from their first seven matches. However, a recent resurgence has seen them pick up 11 points from their last four games, climbing to 10th place and creating a 5-point buffer from the relegation zone.
In their last match, Toulouse impressed with a 2-0 away win over Rennes, scoring both goals in the first half. The team's recent form suggests they may pose a challenge to PSG, even if they remain underdogs.
Possible Lineups
- PSG: Donnarumma; Béaldo, Škriniar, Marquinhos, Hakimi; Ruiz, Zaïre-Emery, Barcola; Asensio, Kolo Muani, Kang-In Lee.
- Toulouse: Rest; MacKenzie, Cresswell, Sidibé, Suazo; Sierro, Casseres, Desler; Gboho, Aboukhlal, King.

Prediction
