THE PREDICTION

Bayonne threw up one of their biggest shocks of a season already littered with early upsets when they bounced back from a 73-3 trouncing at Clermont the weekend before last with a 14-16 away victory at Toulon. With just two wins now in their last eight Top 14 matches it is clear the hosts are a wholly unpredictable side, second-from-bottom as they albeit with a game in-hand, and they will feel they have a chance against poor travellers Lyon. The visitors were exceptional at home to Toulouse two weeks ago but they have won just three of their last nine league games and have lost four of their five away games since Christmas. The hosts will be buoyant after their smash and grab at Toulon and with visiting Lyon well-rested after a week off but possibly lacking the momentum from their more distant win this could be a tight, fantastic win for the hosts.
