Champions Toulon will welcome Leinster to France for their European semi-final.

Toulon won the last two Heineken Cups and they are hoping to make it three in a row this time around in the new-look Champions Cup. But they will not have it easy against Leinster, a team with a fine European pedigree and who defeated Bath on Saturday to reach the final four.

The semi-final will take place on April 19 with the match taking place in St Etienne's 39,774-capacity Stade Geoffroy-Guichard.

In the other side of the draw, in a repeat of last year's Heineken Cup semi-final, Saracens will face Clermont on April 18 in Marseille. Last year Sarries stunned Clermont with a 46-6 victory at Twickenham and the two sides have already faced each other twice this season having played in the same pool.

The record in the group stages was one apiece but Clermont will hope the advantage of playing in France will pay dividends. Clermont progressed to the final four after they hammered Northampton on Saturday while Sarries edged past Racing Metro on Sunday to book their place in the semi-finals. The match will take place in Marseille's Stade Velodrome.
