Lorient seek back-to-back wins as Toulouse target first victory
Lorient aim to break a decade-long hoodoo against a Toulouse side currently languishing in the early relegation zone.
Lorient sit 8th on 4 points, just two points off the continental qualification places after three matches. They enter this fixture with momentum after snapping a rough patch with a narrow 1-0 win over Lens last week, though they previously suffered a 1-2 home defeat to Estac Troyes.
Toulouse find themselves 17th and inside the relegation zone with only 1 point from a possible nine. New manager Jens Berthel Askou is still searching for his first win at the club following a 0-1 loss to Lille and a 0-2 defeat against Lyon in their opening three fixtures.
