I hope you're sitting comfortably, sports fans, because this promises to be a match on the level of a memorable uncle-nephew arm wrestle. We're talking Castres Olympique here, who'd struggle to push over a packet of crisps, up against the mighty Toulouse, who've been swatting away opponents like bothersome house flies.
If you ask the stars, they'd probably tell you that Castres Olympique would have just about as much chance winning this match as me winning an argument with my ex-wife. Yes, that means slim to none. Oh sure, they've beaten Toulouse twice before but let's recall who won the most recent duel: Toulouse, plain and clear, and by a wide margin I might add.
One little peep at the season records will reveal a telling tale. Toulouse flaunts a princely 3-1, proving they're as ruthless as my neighbor's cat with a squeaky mouse toy. By comparison, Castres lurch around a 2-2, making them as unpredictable and edgy as a caffeinated squirrel.
Toulouse has also been flexing their muscles in recent fixtures as well, beating down opponents like an overexcited toddler with a new toy drum. In sharp contrast, our good pals at Castres seem to be having more ups and downs than a kangaroo on a rollercoaster.
In the standings, Toulouse sit pretty as a picture at number 2. Castres, on the other hand, are at the slightly underwhelming rank of 6. When you put all of this together, I'd say you've got more chance of getting elected mayor of Nowhereville than seeing Castres pluck a victory from this fixture.
