This Top 14 Round 22 clash sees Stade Francais Paris welcome Section Paloise to Stade Jean Bouin on Saturday. Les Stadistes are fourth in the standings with 59 points, while La Section are second with 64 points. Here is our prediction.
After their shock Challenge Cup round-16 defeat to Dragons, Stade Francais Paris fell yet again, losing 47–20 to Racing 92 last week on the domestic scene. Despite this recent slump, they head into Saturday's clash on the front foot.
Paul Gustard's men racked up three wins in their last four Top 14 matches. They have won eight of their 10 home league matches this season (D1, L1), most of which by heavy margins.
Section Paloise bounced back from their Challenge Cup round-16 defeat to Zebre by defeating Bayonne in Top 14 away last week. They won both halves, demolishing the hosts with an impressive 54–22 victory.
However, they enter this matchup on the back foot, having lost seven of their 11 Top 14 away games this season. Their last eight trips to face Stade Francais Paris have ended in defeat.
