TOP 14. The regular season is over, place in the final phase to know the champion of France. The first play-off opposes the last two European champions, Stade Toulousain and La Rochelle, while Bordeaux-Bègles and Racing will face each other in the second poster.
The posters for the Top 14 play-offs are known: Stade Toulousain and La Rochelle will compete to find Castres, 1st in the general classification. Long placed to finish in the first two places, Bordeaux-Bègles lost to Perpignan on the last day and must play in the play-offs where Christophe Urios’ players will be opposed to Racing 92.
Who from Stade Toulousain or La Rochelle will join Castres? If the current trend is favorable to the Rochelais, given their coronation in the European Rugby Cup, the Toulouse have won the last seven confrontations. What to expect for a good meeting which could be the last for Maxime Médard and Joe Tekori who will retire at the end of the season.
In the other poster, Racing 92 will move to Bordeaux-Bègles. With Maxime Machenaud and Teddy Thomas who should play their possible last match in the sky and white jersey, the Ile-de-France residents intend to create the feat and confirm their status as the best attack in the Top 14. The winner will meet Montpellier in the semi-finals on June 18 next.
