Champions Cup: Toulouse (finally) finds its Dupont-Ntamack hinge against Racing 92

Toulouse supporters have been waiting for this for ten months. The return of the Antoine Dupont-Romain Ntamack duo to guide the play of the French champions. This will be the case on Sunday for the Champions Cup round of 16 against Racing 92.

Returning from his long knee injury (ruptured cruciate ligaments in August) last week (25 minutes of play against Pau), the opener is already established by manager Ugo Mola. The loss of Thomas Ramos (iliac crest) undoubtedly precipitated this return to the starting XV, even if the Argentinian Juan Cruz Mallia could have claimed number 10. But he will start the Franco-French clash on the wing.

Antoine Dupont and Romain Ntamack had no longer been associated under the red and black tunic at the start of the match since the start of the last Top 14 final, on June 17. A final which turned on an individual exploit from the opener.

In the second row, Richie Arnold and Emmanuel Meafou will start, with Thibaud Flament taking place on the bench. In the center, return of Pita Ahki, absent against Pau, associated with Pierre-Louis Barrassi. Finally, at the back, the return of Scotsman Blair Kinghorn, who injured his hamstring during a training session at the beginning of March.
