Stade Toulousain vs Racing Metro 92 Prediction: We expect the visitors to get within the lines

Stade Ernest-Wallon will be the venue for this round 22 France Top 14 encounter between the Stade Toulousain and Racing Metro 92. Stade Toulousain are seated second, and Racing 92 are third in the standings and will hope for a victory. How will this encounter end?

Stade Toulousain were unlucky last weekend against the RC Toulonnais, as they lost to them in a 20-19 encounter. In the meantime, Stade Toulousain's prior games did see them win three consecutive encounters. Stade Toulousain defeated Section Paloise, Racing Metro 92, and Exeter Chiefs in those wins. However, Stade Toulousain have now accumulated an impressive 11 wins in his last 14 matches in all competitions.

Racing Metro 92 returned to winning ways against US Oyonnax, securing a 13-43 win on the road. In that game, Racing Metro 92 took a tight 6-10 win at halftime, but a strong second-half performance saw them hit 33 goals compared to Oyonnax’s 7. Racing Metro 92 now head into this game with a win of four in their last five matches. Their lone defeat was against Stade Toulousain, while they picked wins over Castres Olympique, Bordeaux Begles, and Clermont in other encounters.

This should be a tight game, and I want to trust the Racing Metro 92 after a series of disappointing performances against the Stade Toulousain. The hosts at the moment have nothing to lose here, same as the visiting side, but I think the odds are just too thick, and instead, we might experience a less offensive encounter.
