RECAP: Saracens v Racing 92

READERS’ FORUM: Welcome to the European Cup Round Six encounter between Saracens and Racing 92 Allianz Park.

This Pool Four finale promises to be a memorable encounter, with defending champions Saracens needing a win to seal a last-eight place for the ninth successive season and Racing 92 wanting a victory to secure a home quarterfinal.

Saracens have won their final pool stage game in seven of their last eight Champions Cup campaigns, but Pool Four winners Racing have lost just one of their last seven away games in the competition.
