Summary

European Challenge Cup live: Montpellier v Newport Gwent Dragons

Our live feed has now finished.

  • After two defeats at this stage of the competition in the past, including last season against Edinburgh, the Dragons take on Montpellier at the Altrad Stadium in the south of France hoping it's third time lucky this year.
  • Harlequins, winners over Grenoble last night, await the victors in the final in Lyon on May 13.
  • Head coach Kingsley Jones and his men will be looking to repeat their performance against Gloucester in the quarters, but they know they will need to be even better if Montpellier are to be toppled on home turf.
  • 2007 World Cup-winning coach Jake White includes the likes of Pierre Spies, Francois Steyn, and brothers Bismarck and Jannie du Plessis - the last three lifted the Webb Ellis Cup nine years ago - in his starting line-up.
  • It's a massive occasion for Dragons fans, a number of which have made the trip to France, in what has been an otherwise disappointing campaign on the domestic scene.
