Good afternoon everyone and welcome to tonights Amlin Challenge cup encounter between Oyonnax and Zebre, the French take on the Italians at Stade Charles Mathon. Oyonnax currently in second place with 3 wins from 5 to date and as mentioned above the highest scoring away game for them in the league was their last game v Zebre in Italy in the first leg. Zebre on the other hand are one behind with just 2 from 5 and 8 points. Both sides however are too far behind to qualify from the pool but dont let that ruin the game, we're in for a big one here in Eastern France, stay tuned
yup
Forza Zebre!
Oyonnax's 33-24 result over Zebre earlier this season was the French club's largest win in Europe & the only time they have ever scored more than 30 points in a match.
