THE PREDICTION
After spending most of the Top 14 season relying on their home results, Stade Francais have won back-to-back away games over Racing 92 and Brive to pull themselves back within contention for the play-offs. They should be the favourites to win this next match at their fortress in Paris but visiting Montpellier are riding a seven-match winning streak as they finally find their stride this season and this looks a wholly difficult result to call. Montpellier could still finish inside the top six and have beaten Toulon, Toulouse, La Rochelle and Clermont in their last four league matches, not to mention Premiership side Bath in the Challenge Cup semi-finals, to show their potential here. Wins away at Toulouse and Bath in particular suggest they could leave victorious here so take the away side to snatch what could be a very close battle indeed.
