English champions Bath will host Saracens in a heavyweight Investec Champions Cup last-16 clash. The draw pairs other English sides, with Harlequins meeting Sale Sharks after their stunning win in La Rochelle kept Leicester Tigers in the competition. Holders Bordeaux welcome Tigers to open the knockout stage.

The last 16 features seven English teams, four French, and representatives from Scotland, South Africa, and Ireland. Toulouse, the six-time winners, face a tough test against Bristol Bears. Northampton Saints host Castres, while Glasgow Warriors welcome the Bulls. The high-stakes matches are set for the first weekend of April.

Historically, home advantage is critical in the knockout rounds. Bordeaux, who topped the seedings after four bonus-point wins, look formidable again. Leinster's unbeaten pool run continued, but they could face a semi-final trip to Glasgow. Bath knows a potential away quarter-final in Bordeaux awaits if results hold.
