THE PREDICTION

Reigning European champions Toulouse lost a tight clash at fortress Castres last Saturday but they should enjoy a detour from a tricky domestic campaign in the Top 14 win this quarter-final. Travelling Ulster are coming off a more vulnerable moment of their otherwise stellar season as they lost back-to-back United Rugby Championship on their tour of South Africa at Stormers and Bulls and that hardly sets a precedent for a huge away performance in France. After a horrid slump, Toulouse have won their last three matches at home over three top French sides in Montpellier, Bordeaux and Lyon so backing them to cover around -8 seems a reasonable target here.
