Toulouse will open their Ligue 1 account for the 2026/27 season with a home match against Olympique Lyonnais. Last season Lyon finished fourth, five places ahead of Toulouse. Still, it is Toulouse who claimed the season’s H2H advantage in this encounter, and our prediction is for the hosts here to prevail.
A pair of 2-1 wins saw Toulouse claim a league double against Lyon last season. That stretched their undefeated run in this fixture to three.
Having finished last season unbeaten in four games, Les Violets will be keen on extending not just that run but also their recent dominance against Lyon.
Lyon had their big moments last season, but those definitely didn’t come against Toulouse. Les Gones will be gunning for a first win in four in this fixture.
They do that with one eye on their Champions League qualifier against Fenerbahçe, which comes up in midweek. They drew 1-1 in the first leg, and Lyon will be keen on winning both these matches.
Their last act in the league, however, wasn’t very inspiring as they lost their closing two games. The visitors are also winless in their last three away matches, losing twice.
A run of 15 wins in their last 18 matches against Toulouse should offer some hope for Lyon, though.

Our Toulouse vs Lyon Prediction
Toulouse will take a strong run into this game, looking to pounce on Lyon’s recent struggles on the road. In Lyon’s last three away matches, they are winless, having lost twice. The Ligue 1 giants also finished last season on a low, losing their final two matches to miss an automatic Champions League spot.
Toulouse are also coming into this encounter unbeaten in their last three meetings with Lyon and having won the latest two. Our prediction for Toulouse v Lyon is that Toulouse wins.
