Here comes the sides as they make they're way out onto the field.

Hello and welcome to Ultimate Rugby's live coverage of the Champions Cup Pool 1 game where Saracens travel to the AJ Stadium to take on Sale Sharks in an all English affair. After losing their two opening games Sale find themselves bottom of pool 1 and will most likely have to win their remaining 4 games in the group if they are to have any hope of qualifying for the quarter finals. Saracens got off to a great start with a 4 try bonus point win over Clermont but suffered a major setback a week later losing away to Munster. Mark McCall’s side made it all the way to the final last year and if they are going to go a step further this year a win at Sale is a must. Kick off is just over 15 minutes away so stay with us for updates and analysis in what is expected be a entertaining game of Rugby.

This will be the first meeting between the two clubs in European Competition. Sale's Magnus Lund is the top tackler in the Champions Cup this season so far (37/39).
