by Steve Ashfield | in Champions Cup Predictions
Both of these clubs lost their opening matches in Pool 3 of the European Rugby Champions Cup. Harlequins are fourth in the pool with Aviron Bayonne a place and a point below them. Time for our match prediction.
The two clubs have Stade Rochelais, Leinster and Stormers ahead of them with the top four qualifying.
Harlequins were beaten 45-28 at Leinster in their first pool match. They did at least pick up a bonus point for scoring four tries. They are eighth in PREM Rugby with a couple of wins and four defeats.
Two of their three home league games have been won with only leaders Bath beating them. After this match, they have two tough matches at home to Stormers and away at Stade Rochelais. A win over Bayonne is a top priority therefore.
Aviron Bayonne were beaten at home 26-17 by Stormers in their opening pool fixture. This is the first of two matches in England for them as their next game is away to Leicester Tigers who have lost both their pool games so far.
The French club are fifth in Top 14 but have lost four of their last five away matches, including the last four.
We tip Harlequins to win on a -21.5 handicap.
