Toulouse vs. Clermont (Sunday, 12.00pm)
Toulouse aims to avoid consecutive defeats in Ligue 1 when they face Clermont at Stadium de Toulouse on Sunday.
Toulouse hasn’t won their last two matches, while Clermont has yet to secure any points this season in the French top division.
Prediction: Toulouse 2-0 Clermont
Toulouse has already earned points against Nantes and PSG this season, making them confident of securing a win at home against Clermont.
The visitors have shown defensive vulnerabilities, and we anticipate them extending their losing streak to four matches.
Tip: Over 2.5 goals expected.

Lille seeks redemption after a heavy defeat against Lorient in their recent fixture. They host Montpellier HSC, who were defeated by Will Still’s Reims side in their last match.
Prediction: Lille 1-0 Montpellier HSC
Lille, boosted by their Conference League advancement, should continue their unbeaten streak at home. Despite Montpellier’s promising start, we predict they’ll fall short at Decathlon Arena.

Newly-promoted Le Havre faces Lorient, who have made an encouraging start to the season, collecting five points from their first three matches.
