Scotland, the biggest pebble in the shoes of the Blues in their Grand Slam race? Answer this Saturday at 3:15 p.m. for the third match of the French in the Six Nations Tournament. The XV of France goes to Edinburgh to face the XV of Chardon, a selection that has often posed a problem for Fabien Galthié’s players. The Habs have not beaten them in the Tournament since 2019.
The last victory against the Scots dates back to 2020 in the Autumn Nations Cup (22-15). The Blues have since gained momentum and can still hope to win the Grand Slam, a title that has eluded them since 2010. But we must not underestimate Scotland, which has also been able to show a good game recently, especially during the last tour in November. The Scots beat Tonga, Australia and Japan.
The Blues will also have to know how to keep a cool head at Murrayfield, the den of Scottish supporters who will be keen to encourage their team.
