Toulouse and Bastia are set to clash this Tuesday in a rescheduled match from the 22nd day of the French Championship. Originally planned for January 25, the game was postponed due to adverse weather conditions in southwestern France.
With both teams sitting on 30 points, victory in this match offers the opportunity to climb back into the top half of the table. At the Stadium, Bastia will aim for their first away victory against Toulouse, with the hosts having not defeated the Corsican side since November 2004.
Alain Casanova’s squad, fresh from holding Europa League contenders Saint-Etienne to a goalless draw, understands the need to elevate their game against Bastia. This sentiment was echoed by Jonathan Zebina in a Tweet, urging his teammates to dig deep and secure a crucial victory:
“This evening Bastia will not give in any more than Sainté on Friday. It’s up to us to find the collective/individual solution and win, that’s important.”
