Another penalty for the awayside. The ref penalises the Parisians for intentionally dragging down a Bayonne maul.

Stade look to lift the pace with a quick tap penalty but the play breaks down out wide and possession is surrendered

The Stade Francais coaching staff will be furious with their side's discipline! If Stewart was on form from the tee they could be 6 points down

The ref pings Stade for being offside just inside their half. But Stewart can't convert from 48m

Great response from Stade. Having conceded an early try they get right down the other end of the pitch and Parisse crashes over from short range.

Bayonne win a penalty at the games first scrum. They kick to the corner but the driving maul is well defended and Stade regain possession

A frantic start from both sides! After a bit of toing and froing Stade get a grip on the game. But unfortunately Plisson can't convert the penalty

Stewart gets us underway!

Both sides out on the pitch. Kick off coming up momentarily

Hello and welcome to Ultimate Rugby's coverage of Round 14 of the Top14. This evening's fixture sees Stade Francais play host to Bayonne.
After a disappointing display last week against Oyonnax, Stade Francais welcome back the likes of Slimani and Burban to help strengthen the side. Despite getting a couple wins under the belt Stade will hope to put in a good performance this weekend.
Bayonne have been plagued by injuries of late, especially in the back line. But with the likes of Rokocoko and Bosman they will always be dangerous.
Stay tuned for kick off coming up in 20 minutes.
