Champions Cup preview: Will Greenwood looks ahead to Clermont vs Saracens and Toulon vs Leinster
Clermont vs Saracens A repeat of last year's semi-final only in a different location.
Clermont are the weaker side mentally and as a result will benefit from their French semi-location.
At Twickenham last year, Clermont gave up, or so my notes recorded.
The Top 14 trophy also went away from them the following week, when they coughed up their home record to Castres.
They were an exhausted team that needed freshening up.
Saracens ran them off the park early.
They were high tempo with Schalk Brits and Alex Goode magnificent.
Clermont drowned in the collective desire.
Burger made…
