CHANCE FOR REDEMPTION

MUNSTER will get an early chance for Champions Cup revenge having been handed an opening round clash with Toulouse at Thomond Park in December.

The Reds lost a thrilling quarter-final against defending champions Toulouse on penalties at the Aviva Stadium last season, after the sides were locked together at the end of extra-time.

Leinster, who knocked Toulouse out in the semi-finals before losing to La Rochelle in the decider, will also face formidable French opposition in the first round.

Leo Cullen’s (inset) side will travel to take on Racing 92, who the Blues beat in the 2018 final.
