Highlights
- The two sides have faced off seven times since 2010 with Sarries winning five matches, scoring 150 points to the French outfit’s 129.
- The first games in 2010/11 were tight affairs with the visitors winning on both occasions and the teams were drawn in the pool stages again two seasons later, Saracens ending victorious by large margins in both games.
Saracens secured their first ever European Cup title against Racing in 2016.
Saracens and Racing 92 have a lot of history in the Heineken Champions Cup but bizarrely they have never faced each other at Allianz Park.

The first games in 2010/11 were tight affairs with the visitors winning on both occasions and the teams were drawn in the pool stages again two seasons later, Saracens ending victorious by large margins in both games.
Then came one of the club’s most talked about games. Sarries legend Marcelo Bosch nudged a last-gasp kick in Paris to secure a semi-final spot and spark absolute scenes in the away ranks.
That was nothing compared to the following year where Mark McCall’s men ground out a 21-9 win over Racing to secure their first ever European title.
Racing 92 displayed great flair under the lights of the Paris La Defense Arena back in November and Saracens will now welcome them to Allianz Park for the first time.
Elliot Daly is set for his 50th European appearance when Saracens take on Racing 92 on Sunday.
The full-back’s milestone is made up of matches from the Challenge Cup and the Heineken Champions Cup and will be his third in the Europe’s blue-riband competition for the Men in Black.
Rotimi Segun returns to the back three alongside Daly and Sean Maitland. The wing scored two tries on his last Allianz Park outing against Worcester Warriors.
England duo Ben Spencer and Owen Farrell are back in at half-back while Brad Barritt and Duncan Taylor make up the centres.
Mako Vunipola, Jamie George and Vincent Koch come into the front row and Maro Itoje slots in at lock.
The back row comprises of Ben Earl, Billy Vunipola and Jackson Wray – the latter led the team expertly in Wales last time out.
