After winning two of the last three Investec Champions Cups, Ronan O'Gara's La Rochelle side are not to be taken lightly. However, not only have the French outfit lost each of their past two fixtures in the Top 14, but one of those defeats was a home drubbing by bottom-of-the-table whipping boys RC Vannes. O'Gara has responded with a raft of changes, most notably the return of Gregory Alldritt, who looked badly undercooked during the recent international window.
Bath lead the Premiership after winning six of their opening seven, though the victory that took them to the summit wasn't entirely convincing. They toiled against winless Exeter at the weekend, with Guy Pepper and Niall Annett making the difference as Finn Russell had one of those days.
