Following two excellent semi-finals last weekend, Clermont Auvergne and Stade Francais meet in Saturday's Top 14 final in a highly anticipated clash.
Clermont overcame a dogged Toulouse in Bordeaux last Saturday afternoon, with the Parisians booking their place in the final with a stunning 33-16 triumph over triple-European champions Toulon.
Neither side has enjoyed recent success in the competition, with Clermont taking part in their first final in five years, which they won against Perpignan back in 2010.
Can Stade Francais end their wait?
Stade have had to wait even longer for a chance to be crowned French champions, despite being one of French rugby's most famous names of the last 20 years.
Having won four championships since the turn of the Millennium, their last success came all the way back in 2007, against tomorrow evening's opponents, when they won the final 23-18.
Les Jaunards have a host of injuries in their back division, with Noa Nakaitaci, Jonathan Davies and Wesley Fofana all unavailable for the big final, with three very able players filling in although they possibly offer less of an attacking threat than the injured trio.
Up front, Clermont are missing Canadian Jamie Cudmore, who could prove to be a big loss, yet they still posses one of Europe's most powerful packs led by number eight Fritz Lee who has become a star player for the club from the city of Montferrand.
Meanwhile, Gonzalo Quesada has announced an unchanged Stade Francais starting XV from last week's semi, so French international second-rower Pascal Pape is again named amongst the substitutes with Australian Hugh Pyle taking the starting role.
The Parisians may fancy themselves if they can get the ball to their back division, with a couple of lethal finishers in Julien Arias and Waisea Nayacalevu both into double figures for tries scored this season.
Top 14 Final expected to be a sellout
Over 80,000 are expected at the Stade de France on Saturday evening, with next year's final already locked in to be played at the Nou Camp in Barcelona as the final moves away from the French capital for the first time since 1973.
