Paris SG v Toulouse: leaders host in-form mid-table visitors | OneFootball

Paris SG face Toulouse in Ligue 1 at the Parc des Princes on Friday, 3 April 2026, with the leaders looking to protect top spot against opponents climbing the table.

The stakes are clear: Paris SG sit first on 60 points, while Toulouse are ninth with 37. The most recent league meeting between the sides was wild, finishing 6-3 to Paris SG.

Form points to momentum on both sides. Paris SG thumped Nice 4-0 last time out in the league and swept Chelsea aside home and away in Europe. Toulouse have won back-to-back Ligue 1 games, 4-3 at Metz and 1-0 against Lorient, and also edged past Marseille on penalties in the cup.

Selection could matter. Paris SG list Fabián Ruiz, Lee Kang-in, Bradley Barcola, Senny Mayulu and Quentin Ndjantou as unavailable, so attacking impetus may fall to Ousmane Dembélé, who has eight league goals and five assists. Toulouse are without Djibril Sidibe, Frank Magri, Abu Francis, Charlie Cresswell, Rafik Messali and Dayann Methalie, with Santiago Hidalgo suspended. Yann Gboho is their leading Ligue 1 scorer on eight.

On the pitch, Paris SG's control game is a factor: 69% average possession, 91.40% passing accuracy and 14 clean sheets this season suggest they could dictate through midfield, with Vitinha a key supplier. Toulouse's profile is different, 43% possession, strong aerial numbers and high defensive actions, so crosses, set pieces and quick breaks could be their route.

A home win would take Paris SG to 63 points and could tighten their grip on first place. Victory for Toulouse would move them to 40 points and may lift them further up the table in their push to consolidate a top half finish.
