Good evening and welcome to this evenings coverage between the visitors Oyonnax and Sale sharks. Last weeks meeting of these two was hotly contested with the home side winning out by less than one score. Tonights game is of huge importance to both sides as they lie just 4 points apart. A win for Sale would send them into the new year as hot favourites to finish second, however if the visitors can produce a similar performance last week, Sale will be in for a dog fight! 8 minutes till KO.
