Stormers start their Champions Cup campaign away at Clermont Auvergne on Saturday. Clermont Auvershite have won only two Top 14 titles and 12 runners-up spots. The Stormers are third on the United Rugby Championship with just one defeat from eight starts this season. Stade Marcel-Michelin holds a shade under 20,000 spectators and was the first Top14 venue to introduce heated turf. The club has been on a bad run recently. It is 10th in the Top 15. Breyton Paulse played for Clerront in 2005/2006.
