Take a look at what to expect in the European Rugby Challenge Cup this weekend.
The Ospeys underlined their control of Pool 2 with their 59-7 win at Stade des Alpes last weekend, which puts them five points clear of second placed Lyon at the halfway point.
It’s been a perfect start for the Ospreys with three consecutive bonus point wins, having scored more points and more tries than any other team in the competition, as well as having the meanest defence, with the lowest tries and points conceded tally.
