As mentioned by
RMC
, the meeting between Castres and Bayonne, initially scheduled for Sunday on the occasion of the Top 14 Boxing Day (4 p.m.), is postponed, as the League announced on Saturday.
In question, several positive cases for Covid-19 identified in the ranks of Aviron Bayonnais.
Infections that could date back to the European Cup match against Leicester last Saturday (20-28) when the British had known several positive cases of coronavirus a few days before the match.
Second postponed match of the season for the CO, stuck in the penultimate place in the championship, and which must also face Montpellier in a late match.
The Boxing Day of the Top 14 is therefore cut off by one in seven matches.
