Current European champions La Rochelle hold onto that sixth spot for now, but they only have a three-point lead over ninth-place Castres, meaning the complexion of the table could change significantly after only one round of action.

At the top of the table, Stade Francais have built a seven-point lead over reigning champions Toulouse in second place courtesy of a win over Bayonne at the weekend while Toulouse lost to Toulon.

Fly-half Romain Ntamack secured a win for Toulouse in last year’s final against La Rochelle with a dramatic solo try at the death.
