Action returns in the Top 14 with fourth-placed Clermont welcoming third-placed Montpellier to Stade Marcel-Michelin in a neck-and-neck clash on Saturday. The Yellow Guys will look to strengthen their bid for a top-two finish with a win against the Blue and Whites. Here is our prediction.
Clermont suffered a setback in their push for a semi-final place in the standings following their defeat at Castres Olympique on January 31. However, the Christophe Urios-led team have relaunched themselves into the race with back-to-back wins in their last two matches.
They defeated Bayonne 38–15 last time out, moving to fourth in the standings with 51 points. A win could see them close the gap on second-placed Section Paloise. Since their Round 1 defeat to defending champions Stade Toulousain at Stade Marcel-Michelin, they have won their next eight Top 14 games at the venue.
Montpellier moved to third in the standings with 53 points after their thumping 41–17 victory over Racing 92 in their most recent outing. That victory extended their winning streak to three matches. They have won four of their last six away games across all competitions and four of their five Top 14 away defeats this season have been by competitive margins.
