Can Leinster reach their fourth final in five years?
Watch Leinster v Toulon for free on France TV (France) as two sides who’ve won seven European Champions Cups between them meet in the competition’s semi-finals.
The Irish giants may have had a comparatively quiet season by their own high standards, but they’ve continued their impressive record in this tournament, reaching the semi-finals for the sixth season in a row. With home advantage on their side, Leinster will be desperate to make amends for their shock defeat to Northampton Saints at the same stage of last year’s competition.
Their opponents are not the side who lifted this trophy three years in a row from 2013-15, but Toulon’s midtable position in the Top 14 is misleading. They overcame high-flying Glasgow Warriors in their own back yard in the quarter-finals, and are unlikely to be overawed by a trip to the Aviva Stadium in Dublin.
