Toulouse vs Bordeaux Predictions - Bordeaux can push Toulouse to the brink in Top 14 final

Editor
Last updated: 26 Jun 2024

The Top 14 final between Toulouse and Bordeaux promises to be an exciting contest. Both teams have won on home soil in their previous encounters. Toulouse aims to secure back-to-back Top 14 titles and a double after their European Champions Cup success. Bordeaux, on a three-match winning streak, has shown quality performances in tough matches. With Bordeaux backed to get inside the nine-point handicap, this final could go down to the wire.

Toulouse vs Bordeaux Predictions


During the season both sides beat each other on home soil and both games were decided by a score or less. I expect this one to go down to the wire as well with Bordeaux backed to get inside the nine-point handicap.

Head to Head


During the season these two met on two occasions. The first match was won 29-22 by Toulouse on home soil while Bordeaux defeated the defending champions, 31-28 at home.

Toulouse Form


Toulouse will be looking to become back-to-back Top 14 champions on Saturday. That’s not all as winning this will secure Toulouse the double after winning the European Champions Cup a few weeks ago.

After beating Leinster in the Champions Cup final after extra time, Toulouse returned to Top 14 action to draw 31-all at home against La Rochelle. It was followed by a 40-28 defeat away to Lyon.

Last week, Toulouse were back to their best, beating La Rochelle in the semi-final 39-23 at home. The contest was close for much of the game, but in the end, in front of their partisan fans, Toulouse had far too much quality.

Unless forced, I don’t see Toulouse making many changes to their side from last Friday.

Bordeaux Form


Bordeaux have reached the Top 14 final for the first time in a while. They did in the hard way after missing out on a top two finish.

In the quarter-final, Bordeaux hosted Racing 92, a match they won 31-17. They then had to travel to Paris to face favourites, Stade Francais in the semi-final.

Most expected the hosts to win the game, but Bordeaux produced a quality performance, winning a match played on a knifes edge, 22-20.

Bordeaux Injuries & Team News


Last week’s tussle took a toll on Bordeaux. They may have to make a few changes to keep things fresh with a few players carrying niggles.

Verdict

I am backing this final to go down to the wire. Bordeaux have won their last three matches, so they are backed to get inside the nine-point handicap. An upset win offers some good value as well.
