Munster will face old foes Toulouse and Leinster have a reunion with Toulon after the draws for the revised knockout stages of the Heineken Champions Cup took place in Lausanne, Switzerland on Tuesday.

With the pool stages brought to halt in January due to Covid-19 after just two games, tournament organisers were forced to revise the competition formats of both the Champions Cup and Challenge Cup, doing away with two-legged quarter-finals and introducing a Round of 16 ahead of a one-off last-eight match. Both Munster and Leinster were guaranteed home draws for the Round of 16, to take place on April 2-4.
