The championship will start with a Clermont-Toulouse shock on September 6. The Parisian derby between Racing 92 and Stade Français will have linked


The Stade Français will have the great honor of opening the 2020-2021 Top 14 season on Friday 4 September, hosting Bordeaux-Bègles at the Jean-Bouin stadium at 8.45 p.m. Racing 92 will get straight to the heart of the matter with a trip to Lyon, the team in shape from last season.

The first day will end on Sunday September 6 in the evening with a shock between the last French champion, the Stade Toulousain who will travel to Auvergne on the lawn of Clermont.

There is no doubt that after a 2019-2020 vintage interrupted in mid-March because of the Covid-19 pandemic, players will have ants in their legs. This year, no champion has been named and the relegations have been canceled.

Two highlights will mark the future season. First Boxing Day on the occasion of the end of year celebrations which will take place on December 27 for the account of the 12th day. On this day, potential spectators and viewers will be able to feast in front of Toulon-Clermont, La Rochelle-Montpellier and Toulouse-UBB. Racing 92 will host Agen for the holidays and the Stade Français will travel to Pau.

Resumption of Pro D2 on September 4

Second highlight desired by the National Rugby League (LNR): Fan Days reserved for supporters. The derbies will be scheduled for April 17 (21st day). This will be the case for Racing 92 - Stade Français but also Montpellier-Toulon, Castres-Toulouse or even Agen-UBB. The first leg of the Paris derby will take place on October 24 at Jean-Bouin on the 21st day.

Note that the semi-finals will be held on the weekend of June 19, 2021 and the Top 14 final is already scheduled for the weekend of June 26 at the Stade de France in Saint-Denis.
