Top Predictions and Bets for Toulouse vs Ajaccio
Two Ligue 1 teams are meeting in this round of 32 encounters in the French Cup.
Contents
Toulouse to Win
Ajaccio is coming into this pivotal Cup match under a cloud of their worst performance this season, a 7-1 drubbing at the hands of Monaco. The team is in bad shape, and the hosts will look to take advantage. Toulouse is undefeated in their last three league games and has a positive home record this season.
Over 2.5 Goals
There were some big scoring games recently that involved both of these teams. Toulouse started the next phase of the season with a 6-1 defeat at the hands of Marseille, and then later on demolished Lannion in their previous round Cup match by 7-1. A few days later they played their best away game in Ligue 1 by getting a 5-0 win at Auxerre. When it comes to their h2h record, two of their past five matches ended with more than two goals scored. Despite that, it seems logical, with their current progressive state of scoring, or rather conceding goals, to predict another high-scoring game.

Team News, Preview, and Provisional Lineups
Toulouse
The host won the Ligue 2 championship last season which earned them a promotion to the Top Division. Overall, they won the second-ranked competition in France three times and these are their biggest accomplishments. Regarding their Cup journey this season, they only had to play one match, a win at Lannion by the score of 7-1. Toulouse won their last two matches at home against Ajaccio, and that will be something they will draw inspiration from, as well as make sure to take advantage of their opponent's bad form, especially after what they experienced against Monaco last week. Toulouse coach Philippe Montanier doesn't have many injury issues, but there are two question marks regarding the participation of Denis Genreau and Mikkel Desler. Toulouse's home record this season in the league is respectable at four wins and draws, alongside a couple of defeats. But, what is noticeable revolves around their goal difference at 16-15 which shows that they allow goals almost as much as they score.
Provisional lineup: Dupe, Diarra, Nicolaisen, Rouault, Sylla, van den Boomen, Spierings, Dejaegere, Ratao, Onaiwu, Aboukhlal.
Ajaccio
The visiting team's focus this season is certainly not on the Cup competition even though they will fight to their best ability and try to win at Toulouse. However, their mission is to keep their Ligue 1 status which is in danger every single game they lose. They have suffered three losses in a row, and are not in a good mindest traveling to Toulouse. They are tied for the worst attack in France's top division, and coach Olivier Panataloni is looking hard at how to find a player who can score goals. Panataloni is one of the longest-serving coaches in France's top two divisions, he arrived at Ajaccio in 2014. To make matters worse for the guest side, they have a big injury list to deal with: Vincent Marchetti, Romain Hamouma, Yoann Touzghar, Youssouf Kone, Mathieu Coutadeur, Kevin Spadanuda, and Mickael Barreto are injured.
Provisional lineup: Leroy, Youssouf, Gonzalez, Mayembo, Vidal, Diallo, Bayala, Mangani, Chabrolle, Nouri, Belaili.
Starting lineups
