Dates and TV details set for European Heineken Champions Cup last 16 knockout rounds

The dates have been set for the highly-anticipated Heineken Champions Cup Round of 16 fixtures which will be played over two legs for the first time.

The knockout games will be contested by an elite group of clubs and their supporters with as many as 28 European titles between them, all competing to stay on the road to the Marseille finals.

Six former tournament winners are also in contention to win the coveted silverware again following the announcement of the dates, kick-off times and broadcast coverage of the home and away matches at the start of the Heineken Champions Cup knockout stage, as well as details of the EPCR Challenge Cup Round 5 pool stage fixtures.

With aggregate scores over the two contests deciding the Round of 16 winners, dramatic outcomes in packed stadiums are certain to be the order of the day as the four highest-ranked clubs in each pool are scheduled to play their second leg matches at home.
