Preview Of The Europa League Liverpool Vs Toulouse: The Reds Business Maintains Record
JAKARTA Liverpool will continue their journey in the 2023/2024 Europa League by hosting Toulouuse. These are the top two teams in the group standings.
The two teams will play their third match on Group E of the Europa League at the Reds headquarters at Anfield Stadium, England, Friday, October 27, 2023 at 02.00 WIB.
The hosts face this game to try to keep their perfect record in the group stage. Meanwhile Les Violets, who are also still unbeaten, will rise to the top position if they are able to win on Meseyside.
Liverpool currently dominate the top spot of the group after winning all the previous two matches. Toulouse trailed in second place with four points, resulting from one win and one draw.
Jurgen Klopp's side made their 3-1 comeback win over LASK Linz on the first matchday, followed by a 2-0 home win over Union SG three weeks ago.
These results extend their unbeaten record in the Europa League group stage to 10 matches. For that, they can keep a good record when appearing at Anfield very large.
This season the Reds have won all six games at Anfield across competitions. They also only lost twice to Europe's previous 15 home games against a French team.
Meanwhile, Toulouse, who competed in European competition for the first time in 14 years, drew 1-1 at Union SG in the first matchday, followed by a narrow 1-0 win at home over LASK Linz.

On the other hand, Toulouse extended their unbeaten record in all competitions to four games as they saved a point at home after a 1-1 draw with Reims in Ligue 1 last weekend.
This is the fifth draw that Les Violets has drawn from nine league games so far. That number is the most in Ligue 1 with the other team, Rennes.
Les Violets, who have failed to win their last five away games in all tournaments, are entering their game against Liverpool at Anfield as the unseeded team.
