Saracens vs Clermont

First topic message reminder :

This match needs a thread. I feel like this game has been brushed under the carpet by many.

Two of the teams on the rise.

The 2010-11 Aviva Premiership champions vs the 2009-10 Top 14 champions.

Both 2nd respectively in their domestic leagues.

Both with a fair few players who featured in the 6 nations.

Some very fascinating battles to look forward to such as Barritt vs Fofana, Strettle vs Malzieu, Goode vs Byrne, Borthwick vs Hines, Farrell vs Rougerie etc.

There is so much class in the Clermont squad but if Parra doesn't play what do they do at scrum half?

I feel that if Saracens are to win they need Brits and Joubert in particular to fire on all cylinders and Barritt to shut down the Clermont attack.

If Parra is injured they need to put as much pressure as possible on the Clermont halfbacks.

Thoughts?
