Ulster Rugby host French side Aviron Bayonnais at Affidea Stadium in the EPCR Challenge Cup group stage.
Ulster Rugby host French side Aviron Bayonnais at Affidea Stadium on Saturday 12 December, kick-off at 13:00. It's a home game in the EPCR Challenge Cup, the second tier of European professional club rugby, so you'll have the French visiting Belfast for the afternoon.
The match is part of the tournament's group stage, which is where the real work happens early on. The results here decide which sides make the cut and progress to the knockout rounds, so it's one of those games that actually counts for something rather than just being a friendly run-out. Ulster have a history of success in European competition, and this is one of those home fixtures that fits right into that tradition.
