THE PREDICTION
La Rochelle had their match away at Bath postponed last Saturday but they enjoyed a 20-13 victory at home to Glasgow in their first Champions Cup fixture. They lost 25-20 at Stade Francais before the European break but winning five of their last seven Top 14 matches is steady progress back to the upper-end of the table. They have won each of their last six home games across all competitions but travelling Lyon are coming off their second away win of the season and a three-match winning streak after a 28-41 victory at Dragons last weekend. Four wins from their last five and a close 19-13 defeat at Toulon suggest they could be backed with a fairly hefty head-start but taking the hosts to edge what could be a low-scoring encounter seems a sensible pick here.
