THE PREDICTION
After losing their first three matches of the Top 14 season, Stade Francais made it three wins from their last four last Saturday, leaving Perpignan the right side of a tight 22-23 scoreline. They were very strong at home last season and after an early defeat to rivals Racing 92 they have comfortably won their last two on their own turf against Castres and Clermont. Travelling Lyon will be feeling capable of anything, though, after becoming the first side to beat the reigning champions Toulouse this season in a 25-19 home victory last Sunday. Lyon rarely win away matches but a 5-40 romp away at rock-bottom Biarritz the match before suggests they have a solid chance at snatching something here. With this match likely to come within two or three points, take the in-form visitors with a +3 head-start off the back of their best performance this season.
