Montpellier welcomes Perpignan to the GGL Stadium during the 22nd day of Top 14, this Saturday April 27 at 5 p.m.

In addition to regional supremacy, this match between Montpellier and Perpignan will be the scene of many issues.

Montpellier, which is fighting to leave the play-off place, will have to win at home or risk having to go through a decisive match at the end of the season to keep its place in the elite. For its part, Perpignan, promised to be at the bottom of the ranking at the start of the year, is offering itself a thrilling end to the season with the prospect of the Top 6 and the play-offs.

The pre-match has already laid the foundations for the fight with the Catalan supporters, deprived of tickets to the stadium to avoid too fervent encouragement for the visiting team but who managed to get seats and invade the stadium square before the match.
