La Rochelle and Leinster face off in the Heineken Champions Cup final in Marseille this weekend.

Neither side is a stranger to the showpiece game with one of the sides having featured in three of the last four finals, though they have never faced each other in the final of this competition.

Leinster are aiming to add a fifth victory in this competition to their trophy cabinet which would draw them level with Toulouse – who they demolished 40-17 in the semi-finals – for the most Heineken Champions Cup titles.

The Irish side have been largely untroubled throughout the entire competition. Their only defeat of the whole campaign was a 28-0 loss to Montepellier as a penalty for cancelling the game due to a COVID outbreak.

La Rochelle were runners-up last year and enter this final with a combination of confidence and caution. They are the underdogs despite going unbeaten in this edition of the tournament.
