On Sunday, March 10th, Racing 92 will host RC Toulon at Paris La Défense Arena for the 18th round of the TOP 14. It’s shaping up to be a fascinating match with both teams having navigated the first half of the season successfully.
A HIGHLY ANTICIPATED MATCH
The Sky and Whites are riding high on two consecutive home victories, with the most recent win ending in a decisive 43-7 scoreline. However, Toulon claimed victory in their last encounter, edging out Racing 92 with a 31-26 win at their home ground, Stade Mayol, during the 6th round of the TOP 14.
RCT: A TOP 14 POWERHOUSE
As the first European club to win three consecutive European Cups in 2013, 2014, and 2015, Toulon also secured a historic double by clinching both the European Cup and the French championship in 2014. Last May, the Toulonnais added their first Challenge Cup title to their trophy cabinet, becoming the first club to have won the European Cup, the French championship, and the Challenge Cup.
Racing 92 will need to stay cool, calm, and collected against this giant of French rugby. The Red and Blacks boast experienced players like the evergreen Dan Biggar with 112 caps for Wales, former French captain Charles Ollivon, and his compatriot Dany Priso. French internationals Melvyn Jaminet, Gabin Villière, and Jean-Baptiste Gros are also ones to watch closely during the match.
In a fierce battle where skill, strategy, and determination intertwine, the scores from previous matchups suggest that we’re in for some exciting surprises as the season concludes. Will Racing 92 continue to dominate, or will RC Toulon emerge as the game-changer?
