It's the big night for the Rugby Blues!
Fabien Galthié's players are only one game away from the Grand Slam in this Six Nations Tournament.
A performance that the XV of France has not achieved since 2010. And what better than a Crunch at the Stade de France to triumph!
France-England, it was already the poster of the decisive match for the title during the 2010 edition, won by the Blues.
The XV of France, then trained by Marc Lievremont, had won in pain 12 to 10.
For this final, Fabien Galthié is lining up his typical team.
Back from injury, Damian Penaud recovers his place on the right wing after the successful interim of Yoram Moefana.
The Dupont-Ntamack hinge remains faithful to the post.
