Leicester Tigers will be away to ASM Clermont Auvergne in the quarter-finals of the Heineken Cup on the weekend of April 4/5/6.

The semi-finals draw was also performed this afternoon, with the winners of the Clermont/Tigers tie drawn 'away' to Ulster or Saracens. The other semi-final is between Toulon or Leinster and Munster or Toulouse. The side drawn out of the hat first has home country advantage.

The line-up for the Heineken Cup quarter-finals and ranking positions was confirmed at the conclusion of the Round 6 programme on Sunday afternoon, with Clermont scoring the bonus-point win over French rivals Racing Metro they needed to claim home advantage in the last eight.

Tigers finished runners-up in Pool 5 after a home defeat by Ulster on Saturday and progress as one of the best two runners-up, alongside fellow Aviva Premiership side Saracens.

Kick-off times and dates for the quarter-finals will be released last this week.

Tigers will communicate with the host club early this week regarding ticket allocation and will aim to announce more details about pricing and availability as soon as possible.

Season ticket holders will receive priority booking status before tickets are released on general sale.

Please do not contact the Tigers ticket office regarding quarter-final tickets until full details have been announced. Details will be published on the club website and social media channels as soon as they are confirmed by the clubs and tournament organisers ERC.
