Good afternoon and welcome to this French Top14 clash between Bordeaux and La Rochelle from the Stade Jacques Chaban-Delmas. Bordeaux currently sit in 8th and if they are to have any ambitions of making a late charge on play-off places then they will need a victory today. La Rochelle on the other hand are currently in 12th and sitting just six points adrift of the foot of the table so any points they can gather at this stage of the year will be crucial in their quest to avoid relegation. Such is the competitiveness of this years Top14 however, a win today could see them pushing for a solid mid table finish coming into the closing stages of the season, likewise if Bordeaux were to slip up today they would not be entirely safe either. An intriguing contest in store.
