The French side touched down in Glasgow last night and will take on the Warriors in the final Pool 2 match tomorrow afternoon at 3.40pm.

There had been fears that the match would be postponed due to a waterlogged pitch however groundstaff managed to drain enough water for it to be deemed playable.

A full pitch cover has been brought in to provide extra protection and will be in place this afternoon until a couple of hours before kick-off.

Almost 6,000 tickets have been sold for the game with tickets still available from www.glasgowwarriors.org , the ticket office on 0844 800 3490 and from the ground up until kick-off.
