Davies said: "The players have really been buzzing in training this week after the great performance against Cardiff last week. We have got to try and replicate that type of performance this week because this is a vitally important game for both teams. The last time we came out of a great performance in Europe against Perpignan we failed to build on that momentum and slipped to back to back defeats at Newcastle and Gloucester. We can not afford to do that again, that is a big challenge for us.

"Tomorow's game is a massive challenge for us. It is a fantastic place to go and play; they are a club with a great tradition, a tremendous stadium and a team full of talented players so we know what we will be up against.

"We have tried to build a group of players who can play a multi dimensional game; the best teams in any competition can play in different ways depending on the factors they are confronted with.

"We will look at certain tactical changes this week against Northampton but generally, we will play with the same style regardless of where we are in this competition as opposed to last weeks."
