Toulouse has the pressure on the shoulders for this 17th day of Top 14 which begins on Saturday. Dominated for the first time at home against Racing 92, the Toulouse, who fell to 4th place, are looking for redemption. Deprived of its internationals mobilized with the XV of France for the Six Nations Tournament, the Stade Toulousain wants to do everything to bounce back against Perpignan. The Catalans will want to do everything to avoid a second disappointment for their supporters (defeat at home against Lyon on the last day), which will be the big comeback with the end of the gauges.
Saturday will also see Montpellier (2nd), on a small cloud with seven consecutive victories, welcome Paul. Lyons (3rd) will receive, for its part, the French stadiumwho again toyed with the nerves of his audience by winning in the snatch last Sunday against Toulon at Jean-Bouin (26-24).
Finally, the encounter between Clermont (6th) and the leader Bordeaux-Bègles having been postponed due to cases of Covid-19 within the Auvergne workforce, the day will end with the match of all dangers for Biarritz : good last with 20 points, the BO, which remains on five defeats in a row, welcomes La Rochelle (6th).
