Champions Cup & European Challenge Cup LIVE: Bordeaux Begles v Leicester Tigers, Toulouse v Ulster, Bristol Bears v Leinster, Pau v Newcastle Falcons – scores and commentary

BBC Sport NI in Toulouse

While the current form book points very much to a home victory today, history suggests this could be closer than people think.

Ulster have faced Toulouse on 13 occasions, sharing six wins each and a draw.

The sides last faced off in January, when Toulouse all but ended Ulster’s hopes of reaching the knockout stages with a Dupont-inspired 48-24 win in Belfast.

If you want more optimistic reading, Ulster won the last time they played at the Stade Ernest-Wallon as Robert Baloucoune scored a hat-trick in 2022.
