Home advantage for English sides

England's three remaining European Cup challengers will all have home advantage in the quarter-finals this season.
Saracens, London Irish and Gloucester secured home ties as the respective top three seeds.

Saracens will host Gavin Henson’s Ospreys, while Irish take on Perpignan at the Madejski Stadium and Gloucester take on 2006 European champions Munster at the Kingsholm Stadium.

The quarter-final picture is completed by Cardiff Blues visiting three-time European champions Toulouse.

The ties are to be played on April 4, 5 and 6.

Pool Four winners Saracens can look forward to a dress rehearsal against the Ospreys on March 22, when they meet the Welsh side in this season’s EDF Energy Cup semi-finals at the Millennium Stadium.

The Ospreys qualified, along with Perpignan, as a best runner-up after beating French hosts Bourgoin 28-14 in their final Pool Two game.

Irish, Pool One top dogs, face a swift rematch against Perpignan.

The teams have already met twice this term in their qualifying section, with both games being won by the home side.
