Union Bordeaux-Bègles and Munster Rugby are set to collide in the Investec Champions Cup quarterfinals this Saturday, April 12, at Stade Chaban-Delmas in Bordeaux.

Bordeaux, the top seed entering the playoffs, narrowly escaped the Round of 16 after a high-scoring 43-31 shootout against Ulster. Though the result was enough to advance, it left UBB with more questions than answers—especially on the defensive side of the ball.

Munster, on the other hand, produced one of the most dramatic moments of the tournament so far, edging past La Rochelle 25-24 thanks to a clutch drop goal and a heroic turnover in the final moments from captain Tadhg Beirne.

These two sides bring contrasting styles but equally compelling narratives into the quarterfinals: Bordeaux chasing redemption after last year’s heartbreak, and Munster chasing magic—the kind that helped them lift the URC trophy just two seasons ago.

Here’s everything you need to know about UBB vs. Munster, including lineups, kickoff time and how to watch:
