Pat Lam to name his team today for Challenge Cup game against Enisei-STM
- Details
Connacht coach Pat Lam will announce his team later today for their opening European Challenge Cup campaign against Enisei-STM of Siberia in Russia.
Since their arrival, the Connacht side have been adjusting to the cold conditions, with temperatures of minus 11 degrees Celsius forecast for kick-off tomorrow.
Pat Lam is expecting a physical battle against a side that has developed its skill levels during their last 5 challenge fixtures when the Russians visited Galway.
They’ve never beaten Connacht during those visits over 7 years, but Pat Lam has included as many senior players as possible in his 24-man squad.
