A priori, the shock of the first day of the Top 14 between Clermont and the Stade Toulousain will take place on Sunday (9 p.m.).

Monday,

indicated that three positive cases for the coronavirus had been identified in the red and black group, after a first case formalized last Friday, which had led to the cancellation of the friendly match against Montpellier.

This Wednesday, the most successful club in France affirms that "the results of the new Covid tests carried out yesterday on the entire professional workforce are negative".

A press conference is scheduled with three players and manager Ugo Mola on Thursday noon at Ernest-Wallon, as before each meeting.

Prefectural exemption

This summit will take place in front of 10,000 people at the Marcel-Michelin stadium, thanks to a dispensation from the prefect of Puy-de-Dôme which allows to exceed the gauge of 5,000 spectators.

Provided that the tests carried out on Friday, three days before the match, are conclusive: three positive cases within the same club would result in the postponement of the match.
