THE PREDICTION
Not many teams score 35 points at fortress Lyon but Racing 92 still fell to an agonising defeat there last Sunday in a 37-35 result. They must focus on the positives of that performance with little time to wallow in the misery of a four-match losing streak in the Top 14 before this huge season-defining tie at home to Clermont Auvergne. The visitors come off a huge 16-13 victory at home to reigning Top 14 champions Toulouse on New Year’s Day to make it back-to-back league wins for only the second time this season and they will look to Racing’s two defeats here to Montpellier and Bordeaux for inspiration. Racing 92 remain the favourites in Paris but there is more than just a scent of an upset about this clash of titans that makes taking the hosts with a +1 headstart seem a worthwhile concession.
