Toulouse will entertain Benfica at the Stadium de Toulouse in the second leg of the UEFA Europa League knockout round playoffs on Thursday.

All three goals were scored in the second half, with Angel Di Maria scoring twice from the penalty spot to secure victory for his team. Mikkel Desler equalized for Toulouse but Christian Mawissa's suspension due to bookings adds further challenges for them.

They will look to build on that form against an inform Benfica side. Benifca comes into this match enjoying a sixgame unbeaten run across all competitions and having scored nineteen goals during that period. They are also performing well away from home with five wins out of their last six games on foreign soil. Considering these factors along with Toulous's recent poor performances at home, it is expected that visitors' current form would lead them to register a comfortable win over struggling hosts. The predicted scoreline for this match is: Toulose 1 : Befinca 2.
