Edinburgh-Stade Francais Challenge Cup clash shifted to Murrayfield

Edinburgh have confirmed that the upcoming European Challenge Cup clash against Stade Francais has been shifted from Myerside to BT Murrayfield Stadium.

The news follows after the Myerside pitch took a battering of rain and hail on Friday night during Edinburgh's 37-7 victory over Southern Kings.

Edinburgh currently are at top of Pool 4 with four victories from as many games and a win against the French side on Friday will seal the quarter-final berth for Richard Cockerill's men.

"Friday evening's Challenge Cup, Round 5 fixture between Edinburgh Rugby and Stade Francais Paris has been moved to BT Murrayfield Stadium due to a frozen pitch at Myreside," read a statement from EPCR.

"The Pool 4 match will kick off at 7.35pm local time as originally scheduled."
