Lens vs. Toulouse - prediction, lineups and free online live stream

The Ligue 1 clash between RC Lens and Toulouse FC on January 5, 2025, at Stade Bollaert-Delelis presents an intriguing matchup in the context of both teams’ current forms and historical performances. According to Lefevre, Lens currently occupies the seventh position in Ligue 1, boasting an impressive unbeaten streak across their last three matches. Furthermore, they have a favorable historical record against Toulouse, having won their last six encounters. In contrast, Toulouse's recent form has shown signs of improvement; however, they continue to struggle with away performances and goal-scoring efficiency when facing Lens.

Recently, it is the home matches that have provided Toulouse with positive emotions. Currently, the "Violets" are on a four-match unbeaten streak at home, with three consecutive wins over Reims, Auxerre, and Saint-Étienne. The team's statistics closely resemble those of Lance— they have scored even fewer goals than their upcoming foe and conceded a few more. Hence, in terms of goals scored and conceded, they are tied at 17 each.

On the road, Toulouse has experienced two consecutive defeats against leaders PSG (0-3) and Monaco (0-2). They also suffered two losses against teams competing in the Champions League— Lille and Rennes. Success away from home has only been achieved against teams currently lower in the standings than the "Violets," making it difficult for Toulouse to secure a positive outcome at the Bollaert-Delelis, considering Lance's current position.

    Only the 0:2 defeat to Toulouse away appears to be a genuine miss. The same goes for their exit from the Coupe de France after a home match against Dunkirk. Away, Auxerre’s results are unconvincing, with only four points garnered from seven matches, including losses to teams from the lower part of the table: Nantes, Le Havre, Montpellier, and Saint-Étienne. Thus, facing Strasbourg, a team they have only managed to beat once in their last four encounters, will not be an easy task for Pellissier’s men.
