Castres have lots to prove at Murrayfield

CASTRES Olympique scrum-half Sebastien Tillous-Borde is promising Edinburgh a tough encounter in Friday night's Heineken Cup clash at Murrayfield.

The French side lost at home for the fourth time this season when they went down against Biarritz on Saturday in their domestic championship and sit third from bottom.

However, Tillous-Borde sees the Edinburgh match as an opportunity to build some momentum.

"We will certainly be trying things without the pressure of the Top 14 and will be more open. The Heineken Cup could possibly help us to cross a threshold."

Coach Alain Galliard, who has been told his contract will not be renewed, will field several fringe players, hoping they will rise to the occasion and boost competition for places.
