Preview - ECC Pool Two, round six

London Irish's scratchy eight-point win over Rugby Parma in Italy on Saturday confirmed their place in the quarter-finals, but they need to beat Pau this weekend to clinch a home play-off.

Pau are a tough outfit, but with only 11 points, they are out of contention and will be the underdogs at the Madejski Stadium. Parma face a tough trip to Agen in the other match and will struggle to avoid finishing last in the Pool.
