Munster and Leinster got the job done yesterday, so they could sit back with interest today and learn their fate in terms of the European Champions Cup semi finals. 

Munster will be travelling up the M8 to Dublin for a meeting with the champions Saracens, on the weekend of April 22/23, following Saracens 38-13 win over Glasgow. 

The dates and times have yet to be confirmed, but it is likely that Munster will be playing at the Aviva Stadium on Saturday April 22nd. 

13 years ago at this exact stage, Munster played an English side in Dublin, at the old Lansdowne Road. 

The match versus Wasps was an epic, Munster losing 37-32, but it was a character building chapter on what became a magical European journey for the province. 

The great Anthony Foley's spirit is alive in Munster and he played a huge part that day.

Leinster are going to Lyon to face French giants Clermont Auvergne. 

It is likely the match will take place on Sunday April 23rd. 

5 years ago, in a game that is part of the Joe Schmidt legend, Leinster beat Clermont in France en route to winning the title. So it can be done.
