Preview: Bourges Looks to Continue Momentum Against Struggling Toulouse in EuroLeague Women Clash

TOULOUSE, France (Interstat) — A surging Bourges squad visits a Toulouse team seeking stability in a EuroLeague Women matchup on Saturday.

Bourges (21-12 overall) enters on a strong run, having won three of its last four games across all competitions. The team is coming off a high-scoring 91-87 victory over Montpellier on Feb. 21, where guard Tima Pouye erupted for 28 points, six rebounds and four assists in 40 minutes. Pouye, a consistent offensive catalyst, will be a primary focus for the Toulouse defense.

Toulouse (6-13 overall) has struggled for consistency this season but is capable of pulling off an upset, as shown in a narrow 78-79 road loss to Charnay on Feb. 21. In that game, guard Hortense Limouzin posted a double-double with 24 points and 10 rebounds. She recorded another double-double (11 points, 10 rebounds) in a 52-51 win over Angers on Feb. 15, establishing herself as Toulouse’s most reliable two-way threat.

The previous meeting this season heavily favored Bourges, which secured an 86-63 home win over Toulouse on Dec. 6, 2025.

Bourges’ recent form showcases a potent offense, averaging 81.3 points over its last three games. Alongside Pouye, center Kariata Diaby (18 points, 11 rebounds against Montpellier) provides a formidable interior presence.

Toulouse’s challenges are evident in its defensive record, having allowed an average of 78.4 points per game in its last five outings. To compete, they will need another standout performance from Limouzin and significant contributions from forwards Taya Reimer and Jessica Lindstrom.

The game tips off at 8 p.m. local time in Toulouse.
