LIVE HEINEKEN CHAMPIONS CUP RUGBY: Cardiff v Toulouse at 12.30pm
Lee McKenzie presents live coverage of the opening weekend of rugby union's 2021-22 Heineken Champions Cup, as Cardiff take on holders Toulouse at Arms Park in the Welsh capital. The match-up is a repeat of the inaugural Champions Cup Final back in 1996, when Toulouse were the winners of a thrilling encounter that was decided in the last seconds of extra time. The French side are the bookies' favourites to claim the title for a record sixth time, while Cardiff come into the tournament as rank outsiders. Can they cause a mammoth upset to get their campaign off to a flyer? Tom Shanklin joins Lee in the studio, with Ed Jackson on reporting duties. Miles Harrison, Nolli Waterman and Benjamin Kayser are in the commentary box.
