If it's Montpellier we stand a good chance of beating them.

My understanding is that top 8 of Challenge Cup and bottom 8 of Champions Cup go into the Last 16, top 4 teams (of which we are one of them) get a home draw.Scott1 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 15, 2021 4:36 amThere’s only 14 teams in the CCTigerFeetSteve wrote: ↑Thu Jan 14, 2021 10:00 pmNo if they do it on current standings it would be Montpellier, note it's going to a last 16 in both tournaments.
Was Chris Egerton who suggested it would be a Last 16 for the Champions Cup not a ¼final (as was originally planned) I suspect the reasoning for this change is so they don't knock out the champions Exeter on one result.

No I meant what are their plans for the knockouts? They said they would have a discussion and notify the teams within 2 weeks.

Possibly they are waiting to see if French teams will be allowed to play in the knockouts before deciding.
