THE PREDICTION

Stade Francais have lost three Top 14 matches on the spin now away at home to Montpellier and away at Pau and most recently Biarritz. They are one of five sides with just four wins from 11 this season in a tight, congested bottom-half of the table and this looks a tough task against travelling la Rochelle. The visitors have won five of their last six to right the wrongs of a dire start to the new season and they look back to their defensive best with just 11 points conceded in their last two wins over Bordeaux and Pau. It would require a first away win of the season for La Rochelle but giving them a +3 head-start over their hosts should be enough to sway what could be quite a low-scoring game their way.
