Stade Rochelais will head into this game hoping for a better result having struggled since the start of the year. Since the beginning of 2025, Stade Rochelais have only one win, coming against Stade Toulousain. However, Stade Rochelais performance in the Champions Cup saw them finish second in the standings with 11 points. Ahead of this game, Stade Rochelais has lost seven of their last eight matches, drawing with Castres Olympique in that run.
Munster
Munster have been playing well lately with three wins in their last five matches. However, two of their most recent matches ended in defeats to Glasgow Warriors and Edinburgh. The visiting team, however, finished in third spot in the group stage with 12 points. Ahead of this game, Munster have defeated Dragons, Northampton Saints and Connacht in three of their last five away matches. Munster come into this game as the underdog even though Rochelais have failed to win any of their last five matches.
Expert Betting Tips
This is the first meeting between these teams, and it can go either way. While the two teams are not playing at a top level, Stade Rochelais level of performance has dropped significantly with the inability to secure wins. While Rochelais come into this game as favourites, I do not see them having an easy task, considering how good Munster has been offensively. I project a game with a lot of tough approaches, but at home, I will back Rochelais, as I expect them to have a dominant start.
