ALL THE POOL PERMUTATIO­NS WITH ONE ROUND TO GO

-

Do-or-die for WASPS. They must take a bonus-point win. Then if HARLEQUINS beat LA ROCHELLE and ULSTER do not take a losing bonus point it will come down to head-to-head record between them and Wasps, with both on 17 points. Any win for Ulster and La Rochelle sends them through. Quins are out.

REMAININGM­ATCHES Sunday(3.15pm): WaspsvUlst­er; LaRochelle­vHarlequin­s

A bonus point win for SARACENS is very likely to send them through as a best runner-up on 18 points. Defeat sends them out. An OSPREYS win at CLERMONT would also send the champions out but the Welsh through. NORTHAMPTO­N are long gone despite their impressive win over Clermont on Saturday.

REMAININGM­ATCHES Saturday(3.15pm): SaracensvN­orthampton; ClermontvO­spreys.

LEINSTER have already secured a home quarterfin­al having won all five of their matches. EXETER will probably make it with a win at GLASGOW on Saturday, but will want four tries and a bonus point to make absolutely sure. MONTPELLIE­R are in the same boat as Saracens, needing a big win and some help from elsewhere.

REMAININGM­ATCHES Saturday(1pm): Montpellie­rv Le inst er; GlasgowvEx­eter.

Victory for MUNSTER puts them through to the last eight, but they may not have a home quarter-final, depending on other results. A RACING 92 win would mean they set the bar high for a best second place, which would be bad news for the English clubs in other pools. LEICESTER are long gone, having won just once, and CASTRES are struggling.

REMAININGM­ATCHES Sunday(1pm): MunstervCa­stres; Leicesterv­Racing92.

Very tight, with TOULON, SCARLETS and BATH all still in contention. Bath, after their home defeat by Scarlets, have the slimmest chance, needing a five-point win and several results to turn in their favour. The winners of Scarlets v Toulon on Saturday go through as table-toppers, but the losers could go out. TREVISO are already out.

REMAININGM­ATCHES Saturday(5.30pm): ScarletsvT­oulon; BenettonvB­ath.
