UBB vs USAP a match at stake for both teams!

For the UBB, a bonus victory would allow a historic direct qualification in the ½ final which has never happened since the club’s return to the Top14, regardless of the result of Castres.

The UBB has its destiny in hand, not the USAP!

For Perpignan, it is the maintenance that will have to be sought against the Union but beware the Catalans do not have their destiny completely in their hands. In addition to a bonus victory against Bordeaux, they must hope for a dry defeat of Brive at the Stade Français to claim 12th place synonymous with maintenance. So, facing an opponent who will risk his life, is that a good thing? Yes, depending Laurent Ferreres notably in charge of rugby 7 at UBB.

It’s the right game to play, it’s a real good game. We do not take a cador who absolutely needs to qualify. The UBB, with the injured who came back, finally only had this Lyon match to really let go of the horses. It will perhaps allow the team to relax. There aren’t many matches left, we hope there are three left before the end of the season, but they need to find their bearings collectively. Playing in Biarritz, playing Pau or the Stade Français who have nothing left to play, would that have been good? There is a team that has something to play for and will not finish in the six at the end. So there is really a nice confrontation. Christophe Urios warned, it’s going to sting, it’s going to hit, there’s going to be some atmosphere, it’s a finals match for Perpignan. It will prepare us to do them. So it’s a good game for all teams – Laurent Ferrères

Direct qualification would be historic for UBB.

With a direct qualification in the ½ final, the UBB would also make a void in its calendar. No match for almost two weeks between June 5 and June 17 and 18, the date of the meetings in Nice. Meanwhile, the teams from 3rd to 6th place will have to play the play-offs on June 11 and 12. More rest, a great advantage according to the former pillar of the Union Franck Labbé.

It allows you to have fifteen more days to prepare so it allows you to make the video, really to work on the game launches. I think that physically, it will bring back a little freshness too, the physical trainer will be able to work specifically to have a lot of energy in these last two matches, semi-finals and final. For me, yes, it’s an advantage – Franck Labbé

The stakes are therefore high on Sunday evening! Securing 2nd place is more freshness, confidence and a signal sent to the opponents with a first direct qualification in the ½ final. An appointment that should not be missed.
