Clermont are fifth in Top 14 and in the play-off positions. Friday sees them host Aviron Bayonne who are down at 12th in the table but with little chance of being relegated. Can Clermont get an eighth successive home league victory? Time for our match prediction.
Only five points separate Clermont from the top two. Finishing in those positions takes a club straight into the play-off semi-finals. Clermont must first ensure they make it into the play-offs as they did last season.
On that occasion, they lost in the quarter-finals and it was Aviron Bayonne who beat them. That was played in Bayonne and with home advantage, Clermont will be out for some revenge this weekend.
That looks likely as after losing their opening home league game to champions Stade Toulousain, Clermont have won seven in a row in Top 14. Six of those seven league games saw at least 30 points scored.
Aviron Bayonne are 12th but a healthy 18 points above the relegation zone. They have lost each of their last four league matches, most recently a 42-36 home loss to Racing 92 last weekend.
They've lost their last nine away games in all competitions with 267 points conceded in the last five.
We tip Clermont to win on a -12.5 handicap.
