Previous meetings • Toulouse won 3-2 in Belgrade on Matchday 1 in the sides' first meeting, which was also the French club's first game against Serbian opposition. Partizan have not won in France, earning a 1-1 draw in their first visit and 4-0 and 3-0 defeats in subsequent trips. Match background • Toulouse have not won at home in Europe this season.
