Castres and Lyon meet again in Top 14 play with recent history and current momentum favoring the hosts.

Recent form further separates the two teams. Castres has won three of its last five matches, showing steadier consistency as the season progresses.
Lyon, meanwhile, enters on a difficult run, having won just one of its last five games and currently riding a four-match losing streak. That stretch has increased pressure as Lyon looks to halt its slide and regain traction in league play.
With Stade Pierre-Fabre hosting this matchup, Castres will aim to reinforce its recent dominance in the fixture and continue building momentum. Lyon arrives seeking a response and a performance that can interrupt both Castres’ form and its own recent struggles, setting the stage for an important Top 14 contest.
