Bradley under no illusions

Coach Michael Bradley knows Connacht must beat Rovigo away from home on Saturday to hold a chance to make it through to the quarter-finals of the European Challenge Cup.

"It is an important game and we need a big 80-minute performance and a victory," he said.

Connacht will be bidding for their second win on the road in Europe having defeated Dax 30-12 in their opening match in France.

"They are at home and will be looking for a big performance and that is something we need to deal with and come away with the win," he added.
