Four of the star-studded Clermont backline which is likely to face Saracens in the Heineken Cup quarter-final will be in action for France on Sunday.
Centres Aurelien Rougerie and Wesley Fofana, as well as wing Julien Malzieu, join up with scrum-half Morgan Parra in the side to face Scotland at Murrayfield. Barring injury, the talented quartet should be on hand at Vicarage Road on Sunday, 8 April for the much anticipated Heineken Cup last eight clash between the current England champions and the 2010 French champions.
Two more high-profile Clermont players, prop Vincent Debaty and back row, Julian Bonnaire, are on the bench for the Tricolores. The French club celebrates its centenary this season and will be fired up to win a place in the Heineken Cup semi-finals for the first time in their history.
