Toulouse and Olympique Marseille will go head-to-head at the Stadium de Toulouse in Round 24 of Ligue 1 on Sunday (February 19). Les Phoceens head into the weekend on a run of seven wins against the hosts and will look to continue in the same vein. Toulouse maintained their fine run of results, cruising to a comfortable 3-1 win over Stade Rennais on Sunday.
They have now won five of their last six games across competitions, including a 3-1 victory over Stade de Reims in the Coupe de France on February 8. With 32 points from 23 games, Toulouse are 11th in Ligue 1 but could move level on points with ninth-placed Olympique Lyon with a win this weekend. Meanwhile, Marseille returned to winning ways in the league by seeing off Clermont Foot 2-0 on Saturday (February 11).
That followed a 3-1 home defeat against OGC Nice on February 5, which snapped their nine-game unbeaten run in the league. With 49 points from 23 games, Marseille are second in Ligue 1, five points off leaders Paris Saint-Germain.
After an underwhelming first half of the season, Toulouse have kicked off 2023 in style and head into the weekend as one of the league’s most in-form sides.
However, Marseille boasts the league’s best away record with 26 points from 11 games. The visitors should extend their dominance in the fixture by claiming all three points once again.
Prediction: Toulouse 1-3 Olympique Marseille

Montanier inserted four new players into the Toulouse starting 11 versus Rennes who did not begin their Coupe de France match against Reims, as Maxime Dupe, Rasmus Nicolaisen, Brecht Dejaegere and Rafael Ratao replaced Kjetil Haug, Logan Costa, Branco van den Boomen and Vincent Sierro.
Goals from Ratao, Zakaria Aboukhlal and Thijs Dallinga gave them a 3-0 lead over Rennes last weekend, with the only blemish coming when Anthony Rouault scored on his own goal in the 55th minute.
Fares Chaibi has scored in two of his last three matches in all competitions, with his previous one coming in the round of 16 at the Coupe de France when he and Aboukhlal each found the back of the net, while an own goal from Reims keeper Yehvann Diouf gave them an early lead.
Marseille centre-back Samuel Gigot was replaced by Eric Bailly in the second half of their match with Clermont after suffering an ankle injury which will keep him sidelined until early March.
Dupe; Kamanzi, Nicolaisen, Rouault, Desler; Chaibi, Spierings, Van den Boomen; Ratao, Dallinga, Aboukhlal

We say: Toulouse 0-2 Marseille
We should see a different-looking Toulouse side who seem to have settled down nicely since some shaky performances at the end of 2022.
However, the depth of Marseille and their ability to remain calm and organised when pressed at the back can frustrate opposing teams, while they have plenty of dependable players in attack who can get the job done.
