Oyonnax do well to clear two potentially dangerous opportunities for the visitors. Perpignan with the ball in the opposition half once again however and earn themselves a penalty - Player taken out in the air off a lineout. They look to the sticks

Camille Lopez kicks the ball deep into Oyonnax territory. First test for the hosts.

Perpignan pinned for off side and the home side their first chance at points. Unfortunately for Urdipaletta he is unable to take the opportunity as the ball drifts left of the posts. Tough opener it must be said. 0-0

Ben Urdipaletta gets us underway

Hello and welcome to our live coverage of the Top 14 with Oyonnax hosting Perpignan at the Stade Charles Mathon. The surprise package this season in the Top 14 after defeating Clermont, Castres and Toulon at home, Oyonnax are just beginning to slow down. Two losses since their giant-killing moment against the Heineken Cup champions have seen Oyonnax slowly slip down the table and into the relegation zone, although a nine-point buffer remains between themselves and Biarritz. Benjamin Urdapilleta has been a reliable source of points and his Argentinian team-mate Lucas Gonzalez Amorosino is a smart new signing - but the wins need to keep rolling in to avoid a dogfight with Bayonne and Brive. Perpignan on the other hand are flying. They have one of the league's top points scorers in James Hook and the league's top try scorer in the soon-to-be France international Sofiane Guitoune. Currently on a three-game winning streak since being thumped 31-6 by Brive, USAP can go one better than Toulon and Clermont by winning in the east of France. Kick off not too far away now, I hope you enjoy the coverage!
