In this match, we look at two collections which share many similarities - they are both big, hyper-themed, have a *lot* of money behind them, are now the home of some strange-looking primates, and both come from the Francophone side of the zoo world. However, they had very different fortunes within the first round of the Cup - Pairi Daiza had an absolutely abysmal Cup, failing to win a single match, whilst Beauval benefited from a string of near-misses and lucky breaks in order to clinch progression.

The net result - we never got to see these two collections face off against one another.

Until now, when we take a look at ASIA, AFRICA and ISLANDS - three categories to which I think both collections are well-suited - and kick off what I hope to be an interesting discussion!

You have five days to discuss and debate the answer to this one, but you *do* have to take all three categories into account!
 
Considering all the people who bemoaned how unfortunate Pairi Daiza was in the main Cup, I'm somewhat surprised this match has been so quiet thus far!
 
Whether due to apathy for a non-canonical match, or a general lack of interest, a quiet match ends with Pairi Daiza once again failing to nab a win:
