Its Challenge Cup Semi final time. La Rochelle take on the Sale Sharks. La Rochelle probably come into this game with the poorer form, having only won 2 from their last 7 matches in all competitions. Sale have won 4 from their last 7 matches however their away record isn't great. Only 1 win in 5 matches. Knockout cup games can go either way though, so this one will be tough to call.
