Head coach Budge Pountney said: "Our supporters will be vital for this game. Stade Municipale is an uncomfortable venue for an away team, but when Saints were there two years ago, you could still hear our fans. We will need that same support this time around.

"Toulouse are the self professed kings of Europe and we are some way behind them! We have nothing to lose, so we will be going out there to give it our best shot."
