Knockout rugby was back this weekend and it will and truly delivered. With the Round Of 16 now over and the Champions Cup Quarter-Finals scheduled for next weekend, we have all the results and quarter-final pairings right here.

Munster's loss to Northampton on Sunday means Leinster are the only Irish team left in the Champions Cup after their victory over Leicester guaranteed them a spot in the quarterfinals with home advantage.

Leinster will now reignite what it is quickly becoming one of European Rugby's fiercest rivalries as they take on Ronan O'Gara's La Rochelle in the Aviva Stadium next Saturday. Leinster and La Rochelle have not only met in the last two Champions Cup finals but also in the 2021 semi-final, with O'Gara's side winning on each of these occasions.

However, earlier this season Leo Cullen's men travelled to La Rochelle in the group stages where they ended their voodoo and overcame the French side 16-9 holding them try less, making this weekend's fixture one of the most hotly anticipated games of the season.

While that should be a classic there's a plethora of other mouthwatering ties to enjoy next weekend as well, with the three other quarter-finals now confirmed. So here are all the details you need for the Champions Cup quarterfinals next weekend.
