THE PREDICTION

Castres could not make it back-to-back away victories as they fell to a hefty 45-25 defeat at Racing 92 last Saturday. They return to a fierce nine-match unbeaten home record in the Top 14 to face in-form Montpellier fresh from an emphatic 30-3 victory last Sunday that kept them within a point of leaders Bordeaux with a game in-hand. The visitors are riding a five-match unbeaten streak across all competitions that includes an impressive win at La Rochelle and a draw at Brive but backing Castres to hold strong here looks to be the reasonable conclusion. Castres’ last four home matches have been settled by six points or less, so backing them to cover -5 is a sensible target.
