Stade Francais v Dragons LIVE: Team news, TV channel and score updates

The Dragons face a daunting trip to Paris to face Stade Francais in the last 16 of the EPCR Challenge Cup.

Filo Tiatia's side are rank outsiders to emerge victorious in the French capital against a side who are third in the Top 14. But the Dragons have managed to avoid a scrum-half crisis with Niall Armstrong and Morgan Lloyd passed fit to play.

Tiatia has made three changes to the starting XV which lost to the Lions in Johannesburg last weekend with Tinus de Beer coming in at outside-half, Levi Douglas slotting into the second-row and David Richards getting the nod on the wing.

De Beer's return allows Angus O'Brien to return to full-back with Rio Dyer also in the back-three. Aneurin Owen and Fine Inisi form a strong centre partnership with Armstron and de Beer the half-backs.

Up-front Rodrigo Martinez, Brodie Coghlan and Chris Coleman form a decent front-row with Ben Carter partnering Douglas at lock.

Ryan Woodman, Thomas Young and Aaron Wainwright form a very strong backrow.

Kick-off is at 12.30pm with the game live on EPCR TV.
