France’s XV will be looking for redemption against Scotland this weekend. Fabian Galthy’s men will be keen to redeem themselves after a heavy defeat to Ireland (17-38) and a disappointing World Cup that ended with a quarter-final loss to the Springboks (28-29). For this first away match of the 2024 tournament, the French will be without Paul Willemse, suspended, Emmanuel Maffou, injured as well as Thibaud Flement or, of course, Antoine Dupont, who favors the French rugby sevens team.
Absences that could weigh heavily against a Scottish side that showed themselves solid last week in Wales.
On the lawn of Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium, Chardon XV resisted a Welsh onslaught in the second half to maintain their advantage over Leek XV. Enough for Finn Russell’s compatriots to beat Wales to the wire (26-27). A valuable success that allows Scotland to launch their Six Nations in full and overcome World Cup disappointment.
So the French will have to be wary of this team which has caused big problems for the tricolor many times in the past. Last year, the Blues won the match marked by the Cards (32-21).
Scotland-France Saturday 10 February kicks off at 3:15pm on France 2.
