Finally hampered by a hamstring strain, Stuart Hogg has withdrawn from the MHR's trip to Bayonne this Saturday. Julien Tisseron , a former member of the Basque house, replaces him at the back. Gabriel Ngandebe, not in the squad against Toulouse, becomes a starter in place of George Bridge, on the bench.

Bench in 6-2

Let's talk about the bench. The Montpellier staff lined up an XXL bench, in 6-2, with the heavyweights Paul Willemse, Billy Vunipola and Marco Tauleigne. Enough to breathe new blood in the second half.

On the Bayonne side, the starting XV looks great, like the third line. The playmaker Camille Lopez was preferred to the gunner Joris Segonds.
