Toulouse aiming to extend home run

Toulouse host London on Saturday aiming to maintain their unbeaten home record in the Championship.

The Broncos haven’t lost in their last eight outings, but Toulouse head coach Sylvain Houles believes conditions in France could favour his team.

“There’s a big heatwave at the moment over here and that isn’t going to change ahead of this weekend’s game against London,” he said.

“It’s going to be a game where it’s important to dig deep, show some character and mental toughness. I think that will play a big part in the game because of the circumstances.

“It’s a big game in terms of looking at the table, but we’re going to approach it a bit differently and probably make a few changes.

“We’ve looked at different aspects of our game that we need to improve and things that have let us down in recent weeks.

“The boys are very focused and excited because it’s going to be a big occasion. We’ll do everything we can to come away with the points.”
