The 2025-26 Investec Champions Cup has reached the knockout stage. After the pool rounds, Bordeaux-Bègles, Glasgow, Leinster and Bath emerged as the four group winners to lock in home advantage for the Round of 16. The remaining four home advantage spots were split between England and France as Northampton, Harlequins, Toulon and Toulouse booked home ties.

It all kicks off tonight with an Easter Weekend of European action as Northampton face Castres at Franklin's Gardens - 8pm Kick Off.

Phil Dowson's side won three of their four matches to finish second in their pool, while Castres won two and lost two to come third in their group. Saints beat Castres in the pool stage and the quarter-finals during their run to the final last season.
