Expected score: Toulouse 4-5 Chartres
As Toulouse prepares to host Chartres in this Starligue match on October 4, 2026, both teams will be keen to secure valuable points early in the season.

Team form
Toulouse
Toulouse enters this encounter with a fluctuating run of form. In their last five matches, they recorded just one win against Nantes, winning 30-29. However, they have suffered three losses during this stretch, including closely contested games against Selestat and Caen. On average, Toulouse has scored 29.2 goals per game while conceding 28.2, reflecting a slight deficiency in defensive solidity.
Chartres
Conversely, Chartres has experienced a mixed recent form with two wins and two losses in their last five outings. They have shown resilience in their victories, most notably a solid win against Creteil (32-23) and a competitive game against Cesson Rennes-Metropole. However, they also faced tough defeats against PSG and Montpellier. Chartres's average of 29.2 goals scored per game is impressive, though a leaky defense conceding 31.4 goals could be a concern going into this match.
Head-to-head
The head-to-head record between Toulouse and Chartres is non-existent, with no past meetings to analyze. This brings an element of unpredictability to the match, as both teams will be approaching each other with no preconceived notions or historical pressures.
Key factors
For Toulouse to rattle Chartres, they need to capitalize on their home advantage, keeping the tempo high and transitioning effectively to offset Chartres’s attacking threats. Chartres, meanwhile, must focus on tightening their defense, particularly given their propensity to concede. It will be essential for their defense to remain organized, particularly against a Toulouse side looking to exploit any vulnerabilities.
Prediction
Considering both teams' current form and statistical outputs, Chartres is viewed as the more likely side to emerge victorious. With a higher average score and a more favorable position in the league, they hold a slight edge over their opponents. Additionally, the expectation of goals from both sides indicates a fairly open fixture, further supporting a draw or an away win as probable outcomes.
Ultimately, given the discussed form and factors, Chartres is predicted to secure the away win against Toulouse in this matchup.
