This weekend, it's time for the quarter-finals of the Champions Cup, the most beautiful of the European Rugby Cup.
French rugby is going well, as evidenced by the course of the XV of France in the Six Nations Tournament where the Blues finished second.
Club rugby is also in good shape, with no less than five clubs qualified for the Champions Cup quarter-finals.
The poster that makes all rugby lovers salivate is the meeting between Clermont and Toulouse, one of the shocks of this weekend.
In the previous round, Clermont won at the very last second on Wasps 25-27, when Stade Toulousain would solidly win in Ireland in the Province of Munster with a score of 33-40.
This summit between Clermont and Toulouse is to be followed on France 2 and on beIN Sports, the two channels offering this match in co-broadcasting.
Direction France 2 to see the Clermont - Toulouse meeting
Toulouse is the team that has lifted the trophy the most times in this competition born in 1995. The Toulouse have won four times, as many times as Leinster, and have also lost twice in the final.
Clermontois side, it is the curse in this competition.
The Jaunards have never won the Champions Cup.
Worse, they reached the final three times and lost each time (2013, 2015, 2017).
Will they succeed in defeating the Indian sign?
Answer in a few hours!
In addition to the meeting between Clermont and Toulouse, La Rochelle welcomes Sale on Saturday April 10 at 4 p.m. (broadcast on France 2 and beIN Sports 2), then the reigning champion Exeter receives Leinster at 6.30 p.m. (beIN Sports 2).
