European Champions Cup: Ulster to face Toulouse in 20 September quarter-final
- Published
Ulster will take on Toulouse in their European Champions Cup quarter-final in France on Sunday, 20 September.
Toulouse will host the Irish province in their 33,000-capacity home venue with the game kicking off at 12:30 BST.
The previous day, Leinster will host holders Saracens at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin (15:00) in a repeat of last year's final.
Clermont Auvergne take on Racing 92 on in another Saturday fixture with Exeter hosting Northampton the following day.
If Ulster achieve victory in France, they will face either either Exeter or Northampton in the semi-finals.
The quarter-finals were originally scheduled for the first weekend in April but had to be postponed because of the Covid-19 pandemic.
It has not yet been decided whether spectators will be allowed to attend matches, but European Professional Club Rugby (EPCR) says it will adhere to the guidelines at the time.
"All matches will be subject to government guidelines and/or restrictions with EPCR prioritising the health and welfare of players, club staff, match officials, media, supporters and the wider rugby community," said EPCR in a statement after announcing the draws.
Ulster completed a Champions Cup double over four-time winners Toulouse when sides last met in the competition in 2015.
Ulster eased to a 28-0 victory in Belfast before an impressive 25-23 win in France nine days later.
