Stade Français vs Pau preview as the sides meet at the Stade Jean Bouin in the Top 14.
Stade Francais currently sit fourth in the table on 59 points. They are in the congested portion of the table as they sit five points behind their opponents in second. A win could see them go as high as second, but a defeat could see them drop out of the playoff places, as they are only four points ahead of Racing 92 in seventh.
Pau are second but are 12 points behind Toulouse and would be unlikely to catch them by the end of the season.
