Toulouse will look to keep their perfect record in the European Rugby Champions Cup intact when they play host to Leicester Tigers on Sunday evening. Les Rouge et Noir are in second place in Pool 1 with 14 points while the Tigers are third on 11 points. Let’s get into the match prediction. 

Toulouse have made the perfect start to their title defence and maintained their unbeaten record in the competition with a thumping 20-8 victory over the Sharks in Durban last weekend. 

Le Stade’s only defeat in their last eight matches was against Stade Rochelle in the Top 14 at the start of the month following victories over Exeter and Ulster in this competition. 

The hosts have been formidable on their home patch in recent times, currently on a five-match win streak while they have only lost one of their last 20 on home soil across all competitions.

Meanwhile, the Leicester Tigers notched up their second win of the competition last weekend, delivering a commanding performance to beat Ulster 38-10 at home. 

The Tigers are on an upward trajectory with just one defeat in their last five games, after having lost four of the preceding five to the start of December. 

However, the visitors have struggled on the road of late, managing just one win in their last five outings, which included a heavy 42-28 loss to the Begles in this competition last month.
