• Both teams have scored in St Etienne’s last five home games

Survival on the Line as St Etienne Host Toulouse

St Etienne host Toulouse in what is a must-win game for Les Verts, as they currently sit in the relegation zone heading into the final round of fixtures. A win alone won’t guarantee safety—they’ll need other results across the league to go their way—but anything less than three points will almost certainly seal their fate.

Defensive frailties have been the story of St Etienne’s season. They’ve conceded an average of 2.24 goals per game, with only Montpellier posting a worse defensive record. Scoring goals hasn’t been as much of a concern—they average just over one per game—which has led to a high percentage of their matches ending with Both Teams to Score. That trend has been particularly strong at home, where each of their last five matches has seen both sides find the net.

With the pressure on, St Etienne will have to throw everything forward in search of the win, but that attacking intent is likely to leave them vulnerable at the back. Toulouse, playing with freedom, are more than capable of exploiting those gaps.

This should be an open, entertaining affair with chances at both ends. Both Teams to Score is a strong angle, and with goals expected, a small bet on a 2-2 correct score could offer decent value, especially with St Etienne’s leaky defence
