Angers will seek to end the two-game losing streak in the Ligue1 this weekend when they host Toulouse at Stadium de Toulouse in the 11th round of the competition. Match day schedules for October 16 at 14:00 EAT.

Despite being newly-promoted, the hosts have climbed to 11th in the table, four points clear of the drop zone after picking up seven points from the last possible 12 during a solid run of form, including back-to-back home victories over Reims and Montpellier. Coming into this game, Toulouse won two of their last six matches (LLWLWD).

Meanwhile, Angers’ current standings (17th with eight points) could lead to demotion to Ligue 2, with four teams facing the drop this time around.
