League leaders Stade Toulousain will host seventh-placed Section Paloise in this Top 14 matchday 20 fixture on Saturday. Can the Red and Blacks extend their lead at the top of the table to five points with a win over Les Sectionnistes? Here is our prediction for the match.
Stade Toulousain will aim to return to winning ways on Saturday after suffering a 32-24 away defeat to second-placed Bordeaux Bègles in their last match. This result snapped an impressive six-match winning streak for the Toulouse-based side.
Meanwhile, they have been remarkable at home this season, winning 10 of their 11 home fixtures across league and cup games. This includes an impressive nine-match winning run, all of which by double-digit margins.
Section Paloise won their last match, securing a narrow 40-38 home league victory over 10th-placed Montpellier. This result saw the Pau-based side extend their winning run in Top 14 to three matches.
They have also won two of their last three away matches (L1), turning a corner after an ugly-looking 14-match losing streak in all competitions dating back to last season. Notably, Les Sectionnistes have kept their losses competitive, averaging just a 2.5-point losing margin in their last two defeats.
