What’s on at the Liberty this Saturday?

The Ospreys welcome Grenoble to the Liberty Stadium on Saturday afternoon (3pm KO) in the return leg of their Challenge Cup double header, for a fixture that is not on TV.

The Ospreys sit at the top of Pool 2 after three games, having secured a third consecutive bonus point win in the competition at Stade des Alpes last Friday night and, with two of the remaining three games here at the Liberty, are in control of their own fate as they pursue a place in the last eight next spring.
