Castres Olympique vs Munster Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions Cup
by Devesh Jaganath | in Champions Cup Predictions
Week two in the European Rugby Champions Cup will see Castres playing host to Munster at Stade Pierre-Fabre on Friday evening. Castres are bottom of Pool 3 after the first round, while the Red Army are in second place. Let’s get into the match prediction.
Castres followed up a 54-10 defeat in the Top 14 against Clermont with another heavy defeat last week when they went down 38-8 to Northampton in the opening round of this competition.
With that, they have now split their last 10 matches across all competitions five wins and five losses, while currently sat in seventh place in the Top 14 after 11 games.
At home though, the Fench outfit has been excellent of late, currently riding a nine-match win streak dating back to the end of March.
Meanwhile, Munster faced Top 14 outfit Stade Francais last week and put in a commanding performance to secure the bonus point in a 33-7 victory.
The Red Army have now won their last two games and will be looking to keep building momentum after losing their three preceding matches in the United Rugby Championship.
Munster have lost each of their last four away games, a notable downturn in performance after winning four of five before that.

Following two heavy road defeats to Clermont Auvergne and Northampton in recent weeks, Castres will be looking forward to returning to their home ground, where they have been excellent of late.
