THE PREDICTION
La Rochelle beat Racing 92 13-20 on the road in the Champions Cup semi-finals to set up a mouth-watering final with Leinster later this month. Last season’s Top 14 runners-up are one of the form teams in the league right now, with a 23-16 loss at the reigning champions 26-13 late last month snapping a three-match winning streak. After beating Racing in Paris the hosts should have little trouble beating another Parisien side at home in travelling Stade Francais. whose season is petering out now after some intermittent flurries of form. Stade Francais were not embarrassed in a 29-26 loss at Clermont last time out and backing La Rochelle to cover a reduced -10 seems sensible here with perhaps half an eye on the Champions Cup final.
