Toulouse take on the visitors Rennes at "Stadium Municipal" in the matchday four of the French Ligue 1. The game will be played on Saturday, August 26th.
Toulouse have a tough start of the new season as the team has already played against the champion and vice-champion of the last season, having lost both encounters: 1:3 to Monaco and 2:6 to Paris SG respectively. Although "Le Tefece" have won the only battle in which they could take points: 1:0 over Montpellier at their own turf. As it was shown by the Ligue 1 opening fights, Pascal Dupraz's side is doing alright in offense while its performance in defense is a mystery so far as conceding goals from the grands is understandable with Toulouse goalposts left untouched in the match against the opponents of the same level. On the eve of the forthcoming clash it should be noted that Toulouse have been beaten only once in nine recent games in front of their supporters, having got three victories and five draws in them.

Rennes have conducted a good transfer campaign this summer as for a French team, nevertheless, it hasn't saved them from failing the start of the season in the Ligue 1 as Christian Gourcuff's side has gained two points in three opening rounds after 1:1 draw against Troyes and 2:2 draw vs. Dijon as well as 1:2 defeat to Lyon. This start is definitely not what the club’s management of “Les Rouge et Noir” was expecting for in this season as Rennes are currently occupying the 17th place in the table with two points earned and 4-5 goal difference. Team's weak point is its play at away fields as the side gained only two triumphs, eight draws and seven losses in last 17 encounters.
Toulouse are the hosts of the forthcoming clash which gives them a slight advantage over Rennes which are quite unable to perform on the road and moreover, they had a poor start of the season. The hosts have high chances for getting points in the Saturday fight.
Prediction for the match: Toulouse to win with 0.0 Asian handicap.
