Enisei will make history by becoming the first Russian team to take part in European competition when they host Connacht in round 1 of the European Rugby Challenge Cup.
The home side advanced through the qualifying rounds with an aggregate 63-3 win over Romania's Baia Mare to take their place in the tournament.
Connacht is currently in first position on the Guiness Pro 12 table, with six wins and just the single defeat from their seven matches.
Enisei will be looking to make a big impression in their tournament debut, while Connacht will look to continue their winning momentum and spoil the host’s party.
