Hello and welcome to Ultimate Rugby’s Top 14 action as Grenoble welcome champions Toulon to the Stade des Alpes.
Toulon have lost on each of their last two trips to Grenoble since the team from the Alps returned to the Top 14 but will be hoping it's third time lucky. Toulon might be focused on other things with Champions Cup next week, but they could drop out of the top two if they lose this one. Grenoble, for their part, need to bounce back from a home loss to Castres, and while they have three games left at the Stade des Alpes, they are against the top two and Toulouse. The return of Leigh Halfpenny will be a big boost however, even if Frédéric Michalak performed admirably from the kicking tee last weekend.
