Friday 25th 8pm Montpellier (1) v Lyon (5) Sky Sports Action (407)/TV5Monde (717)

Saturday 26th 3:45pm Racing 92 (2) v Castres (6) Same TV Channels as Friday's game.

Both games being played in Lyon which was announced some time ago, so it means Lyon have home advantage v Montpellier!
Semis are at the Parc Olymique, not the Stade Gerland, so limited home advantage only.

Very true. Didn’t realise Montpellier have never won the T14.

Yes Ruan is joy to watch and has been the whole season especially since he returned from his injury in January.

Canal plus commentators were signing his praises all along the match.
I am just reading the accolades for the Great Man in French press and fans - stratospheric , regal.

Ruan will not even smile if they win. He hates the golden sand and warm seas of the Mediterranean. Shithole.
