Stade Rochelais are third in Pool 2 of the European Rugby Champions Cup. Their second game in this pool sees them host Bristol who are one-from-bottom after a loss to Leinster last weekend. Here's our match prediction.
After the first set of games, Clermont are top on five points ahead of Leinster on points difference. Stade Rochelais didn't get a bonus point with their win last week so only have four points.
The home side got their campaign off to a strong start with a 24-20 win at Bath who currently top the English Premiership. They have won this competition twice in the past three years. At present, they are sixth in Top 14 but that's mainly due to their away performances.
They have won six and lost five in Top 14 this season with four of their losses coming on the road. At home, Stade Rochelais have won five out of six with the only loss being a surprise one to Vannes.
Bristol are second in the English Premiership but were beaten by Leinster in their opening European Rugby Champions Cup game. They are the top scorers in the English Premiership this season but have had 182 points scored against them.
We tip Stade Rochelais to win this on a -19.5 points handicap.
