LASK will seek to stay on in European competitions when they play host to Toulouse in a Group E Europa League game. Going into this Match Day 6 encounter, LASK are bottom of the group while Toulouse are second. LASK’s fate as far as advancing here is no longer in their hands. They can’t finish second to stay in this competition, and need a win to keep hopes of finishing third alive. A third placed finish would see them go into the Conference League playoffs. That same slot is also being eyed by Union Saint-Gilloise. For LASK, this is basically a must-win game. They warmed up for it with a 3-1 away win at Austria Lustenau, breaking a run of two winless outings. In their last Europa League outing, LASK lost 4-0 at Liverpool. They will be gunning for their second win in this group, against a team that beat them 1-0 in the first meeting.

Toulouse can’t finish top of this group, but will hope to avoid defeat here. That would be enough to guarantee them a playoff spot. Wins over LASK and Liverpool have placed them well for a top two finish, being three points ahead of third placed Union Saint-Gilloise. It hasn’t been a great ride for them though, coming into this game. Toulouse haven't won any of their last five matches. Their run in attack hasn’t been great either, with the team failing to score in three of their last four matches. They’ve managed just two goals in the last five matches. Coming into this game, they suffered a 3-0 loss away to Lyon. The 3-2 win over Liverpool is Toulouse’s only victory in their last 11 matches. Toulouse haven't won any of their last 10 away matches and this will be a concern for the French side. In the Europa League, they have three losses and a draw in their last four away matches.
