It’s team news day.
Bath Rugby take on Edinburgh Rugby at the Recreation Ground on Friday night to decide who finishes top of Pool 2 in the 2025/26 Investec Champions Cup.
Both teams come into the weekend with two wins out of three so far, with Bath one point ahead of their Scottish rivals, thanks to a bonus point from their defeat out in Toulon before Christmas. Technically, no side in Pool 2 has qualified for the last 16 knockout round yet, leaving everything on the line on the final weekend of group stage games.
The winner on Friday will top the group and be rewarded with not just a better seeding for the last 16 knockout rounds, but a home tie in the next round, and in a quarter-final, should they get that far.
Team news is out at midday on Thursday.
The game kicks off 8pm UK time on Friday night and is being shown live on Premier Sports.
