The UK and Ireland continue to enjoy outstanding coverage of the Heineken Champions Cup and Challenge Cup, with every match in both competitions available on BT Sport.

Channel 4 (UK) and Virgin Media (Ireland) offer an excellent free-to-air option, with Sale Sharks’ trip to 2019 Challenge Cup finalists La Rochelle live on both channels at 12:30 (UK and Irish time) on Saturday.

That match is the first of two games also free-to-air in France on France Télévisions, with the concluding Heineken Champions Cup quarter-final – an all-French affair between ASM Clermont Auvergne and Toulouse – live from 15:00 on Sunday afternoon.

BeIN SPORTS continues its blanket coverage of Europe’s elite club competition, including arguably the tie of the round between defending champions Exeter Chiefs and four-time winners Leinster Rugby, which is live from Sandy Park at 17:30 on Saturday.

Bordeaux-Bègles v Racing 92, which starts on Sunday at 12:30, is live too on BT Sport and beIN SPORTS, which are also televising every Challenge Cup match.

Kicking off the weekend is a Friday night clash between Bath Rugby and London Irish (20:00), with the remaining trio of matches in the Challenge Cup taking place on Saturday.

Leicester Tigers host Newcastle Falcons (12:30), before a double-header at 20:00 of Montpellier v Benetton Rugby, which is also live on Sky Italia, and Northampton Saints v Ulster Rugby.

Fans have further access to the Heineken Champions Cup and European Rugby Challenge Cup through the OTT platform, epcrugby.tv.
