the essential
Beaten in their last two meetings, the Tarnais intend to bounce back at home this Saturday, January 4 (14th day) against a lackluster Béarnais.
Rediscover the taste of victory, and not let the hopes of a top 6 slip away, just a little longer. This is the dual objective, this Saturday, January 4, of the rugby players from Castres Olympique. The Tarnais receive, at Pierre-Fabre, those of the Pau Section.
- The CO men remain on two defeats in a row in Bayonne and against Bordeaux-Bègles, conceding two defeats in a row for the first time this season,
- Consequence: Julien Dumora’s teammates began a gentle descent in the ranking, at the start of this 14th day, to 8th place with 27 points, five units behind the 6th qualifying rank for the final phase of the championship and currently occupied by La Rochelle,
- The Palois, for their part, are 10th (24 points) and, if they remain on a success against Vannes (48-24), they had previously suffered two setbacks against Toulon (Top 14) and the Lions of Johannesburg (European Challenge ).
Castres-Pau, kick-off 4:30 p.m.
