Both Teams to Score
The h2h record for this Lorient vs Toulouse prediction is the predominant reason for this pick. In their last five encounters, four of them ended with both teams scoring a goal. When we look at the current league form, things are similar, Lorient had three out of their past five outings with goals coming on both sides of the field while Toulouse has a streak of four straight games with BTTS. The counterargument for this bet is Lorient's home form. They are in the middle of a five-game streak with games that didn't see both teams scoring.
Under 2.5 Goals
The main sentiment for this Lorient vs Toulouse match, or rather for this particular bet, are the games they played against each other. Three out of the past five went under the mark, but more importantly, that number goes to four when we count matches when Lorient was the host. It is obvious that Lorient knows how to subdue their opponents at home, and that is also visible from their current league form where four of their final five home matches ended with fewer than three goals scored. Regarding the whole season, Lorient had 12 ‘under' matches compared to Toulouse's ten. It is worth noting that Toulouse has the most over 2.5 goals in the league.

Draw odds: 11/4 (3.75) – 26.7%

Lorient is the expected winner according to the basic odds set by the bookies who give a probability percentage for the home team's win just below the 45 percent mark.

You can check our football betting tips page for suggestions if you are unsure about your decision: A Goalless First-Half is offering odds at 11/5 (3.20) – 31.3% and given the circumstances, Lorient Win without BTTS will give you value at 4/1 (4.00) – 25%.
Team Information, Lorient vs Toulouse Lineups, and Preview
Lorient
Courtesy of a good first part of the season, Lorient didn't have to worry about a potential relegation battle, even though the fans were unhappy that the club chose to sell some of their best players to take advantage of their great form early in the year. But, right now the team has problems as they are without a win for the past four matches. There are also a few injured players for the home side: Romain Faivre, Enzo Le Fee, Theo Le Bris, and Gedeon Kalulu are out.
Provisional lineup: Mannone, Silva, Meite, Talbi, Le Goff, Abergel, Diarra, Ponceau, Makengo, Cathline, Dieng.
Toulouse
The visiting team is nine points clear from the relegation zone, but there are still 21 points in play before the end of the season, so Toulouse players need to be very careful in how they approach the next few games. Brecht Dejaegere and Rafael Ratao are injured while Branco van den Boomen is suspended.
Provisional lineup: Dupe, Suazo, Costa, Rouault, Kamanzi, Tsingaras, Spierings, Chaibi, Genreau, Aboukhlal, Dallinga.
Starting lineups
Starting lineups are usually released 60 minutes before kick-off.
Lorient
Toulouse
Player to Watch: Thijs Dallinga
The Dutch striker is pushing the envelope for Toulouse producing on a high level during his first season in Ligue 1. He is Toulouse's best scorer with 16 goals and three assists across all competitions and with seven matches remaining before the season's end, there is still plenty of time to further improve his record.
