Both of these clubs have made a mixed start to the new Top 14 season. Aviron Bayonne are 11th in the table after two games and this weekend are home to Clermont who are seventh in the table. Clermont only narrowly lost away at Lyon and that has led us to make a prediction that they can win this match with a +8.5 start.
Like their opponents, the home side have had a win and a loss from their opening two league games of the season. Their Top 14 season started with a come-from-behind 27-26 home win over RC Toulon. It wasn't so close last weekend as they were beaten 70-28 by Section Paloise with the home team scoring 35 points in each half. Last season saw Bayonne finish 12th in the table, five places below Clermont. They won nine of their 13 home league games last season, but lost two of the last three.
Clermont had the fifth best away record in Top 14 last season with five wins and eight defeats. Their opening game this season saw them lose by four points at Lyon, winning the second half by six. They got a first league win of the season when coming from a half-time three point deficit to defeat Stade Francais Paris.
