Bristol Rugby and Narbonne will bring the curtain down on the Pool stages of the 2005 / 2006 European Challenge Cup tournament when they clash at The Memorial Stadium on Sunday, 22 January.
Narbonne made home advantage count when they won the Round 1 clash 20-13 back in October and Bristol Rugby, despite picking up a losing bonus point, will be looking to avenge that defeat in the new year.
The Round 6 fixtures, released today by ERC, the tournament organisers, sees six teams complete their Pool programme on the Friday night in the chase for quarter-final places on the weekend of 31 March / 1 / 2 April.
Games from the same Pool are scheduled to kick-off at the same time on the same day. However, due to the unavailability of Bristol Rugby's home venue - and following a decision by the Board of ERC - the Pool 1 games will be played on the Friday and Sunday.
The five Pool winners and three best runners-up qualify for the knock-out stages.
