What time and TV Channel is Leinster v Toulouse on today?

Two giants of European rugby clash at the Aviva Stadium this afternoon as Leinster host Toulouse in the semi-final of the Heineken Champions Cup.

Toulouse are seeking to move one step closer to back-to-back European titles when they come to Dublin later on today. Toulouse, who boast 10 of the French grand-slam winning squad, have already knocked out two Irish sides in Ulster and Munster.

Leinster on the other-hand are on a quest to pick up their first European title since 2018. Leo Cullen's men breezed past Leicester Tigers last weekend and are the bookies favourites to reach yet another final.

Quotes corner

Leo Cullen: "Really good intent I think in the first half in attack and defence. I thought we put the Tigers under a fair bit of pressure when they had the ball," Cullen told RTÉ Sport.

"They had some chances in our 22. James Ryan came up with a big lineout steal at one point. Obviously Leicester were in our 22 a few times but I think it was just the way we executed when we got into their end. [That] was pleasing.

"Obviously, they turned down a couple of kicks at goal and went to the corner so we managed to hold them out on a few of those occasions, which was pleasing.

"The second half they threw the kitchen sink at us. Got us at the start, a couple of penalties around set-pieces, they eventually get in at the corner [a try scored by Chris Ashton].

"We made hard work of some of our exits so we put pressure on ourselves, which was probably the opposite of what was going on in the first half.

Odds

Leinster: 1/4

Toulouse: 3/1

Draw: 25/1
