The two sides make their way out

Welcome to this Barrage clash between Toulon and Lyon with the two sides fighting it out for a place in the semi-final against Montpellier. Lyon will be without the services of Baptiste Couilloud, Lionel Beauxis and Delon Armitage in this clash while Frederic Michalak will be playing at the Stade Felix Mayol for the last time. Facundo Isa misses out for Toulon but they have been boosted by the return of Francois Trinh-Duc on the bench. These two sides last met in March earlier this year with Lyon claiming a 15-6 victory but Toulon claimed a comprehensive 39-11 victory late last year.

Not much separates the two sides with their recent form with both sides winning 3 of their last 5 matches. Toulon have regulars in the playoffs of the Top14 lately while Lyon will make their first appearance and were most recently champions of France back in 1933.

Stay with us for what promises to be a tense battle with both sides hungry for a spot in the semi-finals.
