Montpellier recorded their historic first away win in the Heineken Cup at Cardiff Arms Park and will be looking to do the double over the Cardiff Blues at home on Saturday evening.
The French side, who are in only their second season of Heineken Cup rugby, recorded a comfortable 35-24 win over the Welsh side and are now five points behind Pool leaders Toulon.
Another victory for Montpellier over the Blues would keep the pressure on their French rivals, who already look favourites to qualify for the knockout stages of the tournament.
Fabien Galthie's Montpellier could still have a major impact in whether Jonny Wilkinson's Toulon get the all-important home quarter-final in the next three rounds of this Pool.
The Cardiff Blues, who played with 14-men for most of the first leg defeat to Montpellier, will be looking to keep all their players on the field for the return fixture in France.
The Welsh region produced a creditable performance against Montpellier, after scrum-half Lloyd Williams was red-carded, but they are still looking for their first win in this season's tournament.
