Welcome to Ultimate Rugby's live coverage of this Round 5 Amlin Cup match where Italian side Calvieri Prato travel to the Stade Jean-Bouin to take on French giants Stade Francais. Stade go into this game top of pool five and know that a win here tonight and a win next week against Lusitanos will put them through to the quarter finals. Both teams picked up wins in round 4 with Stade overcoming London Irish at home. While Calvieri picked up only their second ever win in Europe defeating Lusitanos in Portugal. Both sides will be full of confidence going into tonights game with Stade closing the gap on Toulon at the top by defeating bottom side Biarritz. While Calvieri picked up a win at home to Lazio Rugby to remain in the title race just behind their bitter rivals Calvisiano. In the reverse fixture when these two sides met on the 19th of October in Italy we were seconds away from one of the biggest European Cup Rugby shocks ever but a late try from Garrault saved Stade's blushes as they came away with a 17-16 win over Prato. Kick off is 30 minutes away so stay with us for further Updates and analysis in tonight's match.
