It is also Bordeaux’s first Top 14 final and they want a slice of history. Head coach Yannick Bru told Canal Plus: “We’re just proud to continue building the UBB.
“We’re a young club – when you compare it to Toulouse’s 120 years, they have an experience we don’t. But we have energy, positivity and a magnificent public. It’s going to be a huge challenge.”
Bordeaux are targeting to upset to Toulouse party but can they do it? Let’s take a look at the predictions.
Toulouse v Bordeaux predictions
Toulouse by 10 points. Toulouse have been the dominant force in the Top 14 this season. They topped the table in the regular season and defeated La Rochelle in the semi-final.
Not only that but they already have the Champions Cup trophy this season. They expertly beat Leinster, another club who usually defeat everyone in their way.
However, Bordeaux won’t be steamrolled. They overcame Racing 92 and Stade Francais in the quarter and semis but they face a slightly different beast in Toulouse, who are likely to come out on top.
