Prediction :

 

Clermont to win on a -10 points handicap

 

The penultimate week of the main Top 14 season is vital for both of these clubs. Clermont are seventh and a place outside the play-off positions. They host Stade Francais Paris who are down in 12th, one place above the relegation places. Can The Yellow Guys get a vital home win? Here’s our match prediction.

The home side are only three points behind the sixth place that would take them into the play-off quarter-finals. Last weekend saw them lose 34-29 at Castres. They have won nine and lost three at home in this season’s Top 14. Their last three on home soil have all been won.

Stade Francais Paris are just one point above USA Perpignan who currently occupy the relegation play-off position. There’s a gap of five points between bottom-placed Vannes and Stade Francais Paris. The side finishing bottom are automatically relegated and it’s their away form that has put the Pink Soldiers in relegation trouble.

They have lost all 12 of their away league games, most recently being beaten at USA Perpignan. Their final league game is at home to Castres and it may be they need to win that to stay in Top 14.

We tip Clermont to win on a -10 points handicap.
