Concatenate strings together in template if statement

I read this and my code looked like this:

html: 

<li {% if request.path == '/groups/{{ group.id }}/' %}class="active"{% endif %} ><a href="{% url 'detail' group.id %}">Link</a></li>

The only problem is that /groups/{{ group.id }}/ obviously turn into:

/groups/{{ group.id }}/

not

/groups/1/

that will end up being a lot of code if type it for the other 10 links on the page.

Instead of hardcoding the url, use the url tag with as

{% url 'my_group_url_name' group.id as group_url %}
{% if request.path == group_url %}
