It’s the shock everyone’s been waiting for. The first two of the championship will be explained this Sunday on the lawn of the GGL Stadium at the end of the 23rd day of Top 14.
It is with five points in advance that the MHR receives its Bordeaux runner-up, a month after having robbed him of the first place. The two teams are in a totally different dynamic. The Montpellier residents are displaying good consistency and have just confirmed their ticket to the quarter-finals of the Champions Cup by affording themselves the luxury of resting several starters. The UBB, she said goodbye to Europe and lost, in all competitions, eight of their last nine matches.
If it is still 2nd, the Union sees the pack of pursuers getting closer. La Rochelle and Castres came back to one point, Racing to two. Suffice to say that any point gleaned on the lawn of the leader will be precious before playing on May 1 against Toulon which will undoubtedly be the pivotal match of the end of the season.
MHR-UBB, a meeting to live in full on France Bleu Gironde and francebleu.fr from 8:35 p.m. with Arnaud Carré and Julien De Jong.
