The Parisians, who hold the record for the number of French championship titles (22), have often struggled to stay in the top flight in recent years, but they have just snatched an astonishing success in Rouen (3-5, 4-1), making him an opponent to be feared. This Sunday, April 16, the Rochelais will be able to count for the first time on the presence of the Venezuelan Yafferson Lopez, but will be deprived of the Dominican striker Denis Brito, who will not be qualified until April 20.
