Harlequins: It’s been a tricky PREM campaign for Harlequins so far this season, but they’ll be encouraged by their Investec Champions Cup form. Two 60-pointers at The Stoop in the pool stage will mean confidence is high ahead of welcoming Sale Sharks.

Stade Toulousain: The six-time champions have looked reliably impressive recently, despite a blip against Union Bordeaux Bègles. And with their France stars back, as well as Romain Ntamack returning from injury, they’ll be keen to push on from the Round of 16.

Bristol Bears: Things haven’t gone the Bears’ way in recent games, but they’ll be buoyed by the return of international stars Ellis Genge, Tom Jordan and Louis Rees-Zammit for their visit to Toulouse next weekend.

DHL Stormers: The South Africans’ impressive start to the season dropped off at the end of January, with back-to-back losses to neighbours Hollywoodbets Sharks. But two recent wins keep them well and truly in the fight as they head to Toulon full of confidence.

Sale Sharks: It’s been rocky for the Sharks since the pool stage, but with internationals such as George Ford, Tom Roebuck and Luke Cowan-Dickie back amongst the side, they’ll be sure to kick on as they head to Harlequins in the Round of 16.
