Le Mans – Toulouse

Le Mans host Toulouse in what promises to be a tight battle at the top of the table, with the home side sitting 14th on three points after three draws and a defeat, having scored seven and conceded eight. The visitors sit just below them in 17th place, also winless but with two points from two stalemates and two losses, their goal tally at four for and seven against. Both clubs have yet to taste victory this season, so the encounter could be decisive in the fight to climb out of the lower half of the standings. Their previous meetings have been evenly matched, adding an extra layer of intrigue to a fixture where a single point could reshape the relegation scrap.
