While Laporte's team have continued in the same vein that they finished last season, it's been a catastrophic campaign for Castres, who simply have to win this weekend. Still without a point on the road this season, David Darricarrère's side have won every Top 14 game they've played at Pierre Antoine, with their one home defeat coming in a game that was moved to Béziers.

For the last six seasons the bottom side in the Top 14 after ten rounds has always been relegated. That's the position Castres find themselves in heading into week 11. They were almost dealt a huge favour when Toulon threatened to forfeit this week's game, but after all the bluster from Bernard Laporte, it will still be a strong team in the Tarn today, even if the front row stocks are severely depleted.

Hello and welcome to Ultimate Rugby's live coverage of the Top 14 with Castres hosting Toulon here in the Stade Pierre-Antoine this afternoon.
