We look almost set to go here at Ashton Gate!

Hello all and welcome to Ultimate Rugby's coverage of the Challenge Cup clash between Bristol and Bath at Ashton Gate. Hosts Bristol make seven changes to their side that narrowly lost to Northampton last weekend. That includes the loss of talisman Woodward from full-back, who is replaced by Arscott. Tusi Pisi returns from suspension and slots into the centre. Table-toppers Bath on the other hand have named a full-strength side this evening, which includes key men in the backline such as George Ford, Jonathan Joseph, and Anthony Watson. Bristol have been playing some superb rugby as of late so can they continue to carry this form and dethrone Bath off the top spot? Stay tuned for live updates.

Could this be 4 in a row for Bath?
