Paillaugue points straight to the posts as this penalty is well within range for him.
Ngwyena with a really silly tackle. Deserved that yellow!!
Montpellier have come out all guns blazing at the start of this game. 4 or 5 breaks have been made already ready by the Montpellier back line. Biarritz look in trouble already!!
Biarritz not rolling away at the ruck and Paillaugue adds the first points of this game!
And Trinh-Duc gets underway with a good kick deep into the Biarritz 22
Hello and welcome to today's coverage of Montpellier vs Biarritz Olympique live from the Stade Yves du Manoir in the South of France. A lot at stake for both teams today as we get towards the business end of the season. Montpellier who are currently placed 6th in the Top 14 will be looking to get a bonus point to get into one of the coveted top 4 spots as a very out of form Biarritz side who lie dead last in the table have only won 3 games thus far, and so as we are officially half way through the French rugby season the Basque side really need to get in gear. Both sides are coming off heavy defeats in their last Top 14 fixture with Montpellier falling victim to a 43-10 drubbing away to Toulon and Biarritz became the latest victim at the Stade Marcel Michellin as they were hammered 35-6. Both sides have fielded full strength teams so lets hope Biarritz can show up for what should be a great French battle. Trinh-Duc starts in his usual 10 jersey and has a lot to prove to the French selectors as we near the 6 Nations. Wynand Olivier also starts in the centre and has made such an impact since his arrival from the Blue Bulls. On the Biarrtiz side Le petit general Yachvilli starts in fly half today and Biarritz will look to him for direction and points from the tee while they will be relying on the finishing capabilities of Ngywena on the wing and they will also look to him to provide some go forward ball. Kick off is moments away so stay with us for what should be a great match!!
