Championship Standings
Shared SofaScore total Top 14 2026/27 standings after 5 games per side: Stade Toulousain 1st on 19, Bayonne 3rd on 17. The table repeats the form results, so its dimension stays zero. Paris and Racing are tied on ten points; LNR orders that tie differently, so the same SofaScore table is retained throughout.

Stade Toulousain
W4, D0, L1Same-competition games only: 5 completed matches, 2026-09-06–2026-10-03; 152 points for and 90 against. Toulouse won 48–12 over Bordeaux and 40–18 over Montpellier at home, then survived 8–7 at Castres. Four wins and only 90 conceded supply a stronger defensive foundation than a claim that the attack always runs freely.
Bayonne
W4, D0, L1Same-competition games only: 5 completed matches, 2026-09-05–2026-10-03; 156 points for and 169 against. Bayonne have also won four of five, including 20–17 at Racing and 35–32 over Paris. Their 70–28 defeat at Pau explains much of the defensive aggregate; excluding it entirely would hide a relevant away vulnerability.

Stade Toulousain (4)
Toulouse won four of six, including 31–10 here in January and 32–25 in a neutral semi-final. Bayonne’s 40–26 home win last October is an important counterexample rather than evidence for an away stranglehold. This is the retrieved recent sample, not an all-time record.

The explicitly bounded sample supplies background, not a second score for results already counted under form. Toulouse won 48–12 over Bordeaux and 40–18 over Montpellier at home, then survived 8–7 at Castres. Four wins and only 90 conceded supply a stronger defensive foundation than a claim that the attack always runs freely. Off-season changes and this week’s selection status limit how directly older results transfer.

No complete current XV and bench was verified; arrays remain empty. Personnel dimensions are ungraded, so this provisional team-level call may change.

Key Matchups
Bayonne’s away win at Racing keeps this competitive, but Toulouse’s home scoring and defensive aggregate are better balanced. The 8–7 Castres result shows the total can fall sharply when the contest becomes territorial; confirmed selections remain material. All six displayed unit edges are ungraded placeholders; “close” does not mean the unknown selections are equal.
Match Forecast
Toulouse by 6 is the rounded house-model lean. Toulouse’s two substantial home wins and league-leading 90 conceded support the home choice against another 4–1 side. The seven scores total 4, giving a 73% displayed home probability.
Bayonne are 4–1, have won at Racing and beat Toulouse last October. Current international availability is unverified, so the result-based lean cannot be presented as a full-strength matchup. Both current XVs and replacement benches remain unverified; depth, set piece and backline scores are ungraded zeros, so this team-level lean can change. The scoring projection uses a 56.7-point mean from the two dated five-match samples, rounded to 58 for an integer 6-point difference. The 1–11 band is an editorial range, not a statistical confidence interval.
