Wasps could take Toulouse by storm
Montpellier v Leinster
Sky Sports 2, 1pm
Montpellier and Leinster drew their previous meeting at the Altrad Stadium five years ago and a similarly close-fought battle looks on the cards on Sunday lunchtime.
The south of France outfit won the Challenge Cup and reached the Top 14 semi-finals last season and a decent start to this league campaign was franked by last week’s gritty, last-gasp loss at Northampton. Leinster’s hopes of ending a six-game run of away defeats in this tournament will have been boosted by achieving a try-bonus win against Castres at the RDS eight days ago without extending themselves physically.
The best value bet looks to be the 2-1 about a try for the home side’s heavyweight free-scoring flyer Nemani Nadolo. Nadolo has bagged a hat-trick against Brive in the Top 14 and impressed with his running and handling since a switch from the Crusaders.
