Top 14: one last royal day

2021-06-04T14:28:09.852Z


The multiplex promises to be exciting this Saturday evening on Canal + (9:05 p.m.). There will be a stake on practically all the lawns of the Top 14th


There will be something for everyone, on almost all terrains.

This final day of the Top 14 this Saturday evening (9:05 p.m.) is riddled with high-stakes games.

It's very simple, each confrontation, on each lawn, will be decisive for the direct access to the semi-finals and the play-offs, whether they are qualifying or relegation.

Only Lyon - Agen will count for butter.

The LOU, maintained and not qualified, has indeed nothing to lose or gain and the Lot-et-Garonnais, who have not won a single meeting of the season, have both feet in Pro D 2 since long ago.

Semi-finals: Toulouse and La Rochelle capped by Racing?

The champion and the vice-champion of Europe are under threat from the Ile-de-France residents.

Toulouse, traveling to Bordeaux-Bègles, whose home play-off is assured and the hope of a direct accession to the tiny semi-final, seems the best off.

La Rochelle will have to win at Clermont who has not yet validated his ticket among the first six ... Racing could well take advantage.

In Paris La Défense Arena, faced with Brivists who no longer covet anything, Laurent Travers' players should pocket the offensive bonus and overtake Les Rochelais, in the event of defeat in Auvergne, or even Toulouse, if they bow and no 'register no defensive bonus in Gironde.

Qualifying play-offs: Clermont, Toulon, Stade Français and Castres in the fight

The four stand at three points.

Everything is therefore possible depending on the results of Clermont - La Rochelle, Castres - Toulon and Bayonne - Stade Français.

Four teams, two places ... The equation will not be easy on the pitch.

Maintenance barrage: a distant duel between Bayonne and Pau

With four points ahead of the Béarnais, the Basques have not yet left the inn.

Pau welcomes Montpellier who is already on vacation and should therefore pocket the offensive bonus.

It will take at least a draw in Bayonne against the Parisians to avoid playing the maintenance barrage against the loser of the final of pro D 2: Perpignan - Biarritz.

The 26th and last day:

Bordeaux-Bègles - Toulouse, Clermont - La Rochelle, Racing - Brive, Castres - Toulon, Bayonne - Stade Français, Lyon - Agen, Pau - Montpellier.

The classification:

1. Toulouse, 77 points; 2. La Rochelle, 77; 3. Racing, 73; 4. Bordeaux-Bègles, 72; 5. Clermont, 67; 6. Toulon, 66; 7. Stade Français, 66; 8. Castres, 64; 9. Lyon, 60; 10. Montpellier, 54; 11. Brive, 51; 12. Bayonne, 45; 13. Pau, 41; 14. Agen, 2.
