In Ligue 1, Toulouse will play Rennes, which is fifth, at the Stadium de Toulouse on Sunday in an effort by both teams to win again. Last Saturday, the hosts were defeated by league leaders Paris Saint-Germain 2-1 on the road.
In the 20th minute, Toulouse took the lead through Branco van den Boomen, but Achraf Hakimi leveled the score 18 minutes later, and Lionel Messi scored the winning goal in the 58th minute. They beat Reims in the Coupe de France on Wednesday, and they’ll want to do the same in this match.
Last Saturday, Rennes lost to Lille 3-1 at home, their third defeat in five league games. Rennes took an early lead thanks to an Amine Gouiri goal, but Lille came back to win with three goals in the second half, including two in the final ten minutes.

Toulouse vs Rennes Prediction :
In their most recent games, Le Téfécé had improved their form and have only lost one game overall this year. They will be hopeful because they have won seven of their nine 2023 games. However, they may struggle here because they have only defeated their northern rivals once since 2015.
In all competitions, Les Rennais has lost four of their last six games. Despite their poor form, they should be able to draw this match because they have outperformed the hosts in recent encounters.

Toulouse vs Rennes Team news :
Montanier had the luxury of bringing Van den Boomen and Thijs Dallinga off earlier than anticipated for additional rest ahead of this weekend because Toulouse led three goals after 60 minutes against Reims on Wednesday.
Although long-term absentees Denis Genreau (muscle) and Welshman Rhys Healey (cruciate ligament) remain sidelined for the hosts, Les Tefece Les Violets have no new injury concerns heading into Sunday.
Martin Terrier, a left winger for Rennes, is out for the remainder of the season with a cruciate ligament injury he sustained in the team’s win over Nice at the beginning of January. Djed Spence, a right-back on loan from Tottenham Hotspur, made his debut for Genesio’s team in the loss to Lille last time out.
The 22-year-old should keep his spot in the team ahead of Norwegian Birger Meling. Due to Hamari Traore’s calf injury, Spence is expected to play a lot in the next two weeks. The 31-year-old hopes to be back in action by the end of the month.
