This Friday, November 29, the Agenais travel to Béziers (7:30 p.m.).
After three consecutive defeats, the SUA goes to the Béziers lawn on Friday. The Agenais hope to relaunch themselves against a Top 6 team. To do this, they will have to be more solid than in their last outings. During this trip, Sébastien Calvet decided to make several rotations compared to the team defeated against Montauban.

Thus, for this meeting, the SUA should relaunch as starter Alex Burin, absent from the group against the Tarn-et-Garonnais. The Chilean Javier Eissmann will have his first start with Sporting in the second row. Tomasi Fineanganofo, Dorian Bellot, Peyo Muscarditz and Franck Pourteau should also return to the starting XV, like Lucas Martins, back from selection. Hayam El Bibouji could see his first match sheet, as a substitute, alongside Thibaud Mazzoléni and Ethan Randle.

On the infirmary side, apart from the long-term absentees Jean-Marcellin Buttin and John Madigan, few players are on the flank. Uncertain at the start of the week, Pierre Jouvin and Théo Belan are out, as is second row William Demotte. The international was the victim of “a head-to-head collision” with a Espoir during training this Monday. “He is unfit for this match,” announced Sébastien Calvet. Tarn-et-Garonnais also revealed another hard blow, with the absence of center Kolinio Ramoka. “He has a tear and it will take a few weeks to recover.”
