Looking at the Lique 1 fixtures for that weekend, Lille and Lens
are at home but Le Havre are away, so its likely to be at the

Stade Oceane where
they have played regularly is the near past. the other
possibilty is Le Mans, but their fixtures are not out yet.

Continuing the Lyon theme….
If you’re leaving Paris at Gare du Lyon then Le Train Bleu is a
great place for lunch.

Booked a flight to Paris, as hoping it won’t be too far away for
Racing
Marseille is a decent option for Toulon, lots of trains and
around a 50 minute trip

@sib Most possible Stadia are circa 2 hrs from Paris unless they
take it to Guadelope or another Departement Autre Mare i'm sure
you'll be fine! Lille, Lens, Auxerre all have soccer home
matches, Nantes and Le Mans are now covered by Vannes (
promoted to Pro 14) and La Rochelle. Only real option is Le
Havre or exceptionally Amiens (capacity 13,000) . They won't
play at SDF or PdP or at Stade. Stade Reims are away to
Strasbourg but they've no connection there. Anywhere else is
really pushing distances, I'd almost bet on Le Havre if I was a
betting man, they've played big games including Leinster there
before.

Park de Princes (PSG) is next door to Jean Bouin, I really don't
think Stade Francais would let it happen!

Can’t see why it would have any impact on Stade, and with them
being away to Munster might even offer their stadium

How would we react if Salarycens played at Brentford or the
Stoop, the French also have 'catchment areas', Racing north of
the river, Stade are South.
