Good evening and welcome to Ultimate Rugby's live coverage of today's 2015/16 Champion's Cup Pool 4 opening fixture as Leicester Tigers welcome Stade Francais to Welford Road. The visitors have a lot to prove tonight as they look to build off their domestic success last season in the Top 14, while Leicester will look to improve on their disappointing European campaign last season, after failing to qualify for the knockout stages. This is a huge game for both sides. Stay tuned for live updates as we await kick off.

Come on you Tigers

Leicester have only won 3 of their last 8 European Cup matches yet those all 3 of those wins came at home.

Stade Francais' last 4 games against English opposition have all been settled by 5 of less points.
