Leinster were the losing finalists to Bordeaux Begles in last season's European Rugby Champions Cup. They will hope to go one better this season and travel to Clermont in their opening pool fixture. The home side only has three clubs below them in Top 14 and our prediction is Leinster wins on a -10.5 handicap.
This is a Pool 1 match and it also includes Bordeaux, Leicester Tigers, Glasgow Warriors and Section Paloise.
Leinster have lost four of the last five finals in this competition. They have lifted the trophy four times, most recently in 2018.
This season, the Irish club are tenth in the United Rugby Championship. They lost their first two games away at Lions and Sharks, but only by a combined points margin of seven points. Their first win came in their most recent match at home to Cardiff, winning 29-5.
Clermont are struggling in Top 14 this season and are down in 11th place.
Of their six league games, two have been won with the other four all ending in defeats. Home form has seen them beat Stade Francais Paris and Castres Olympique. Their unbeaten home run was ended when they lost 23-22 to Bordeaux Begles.
Three of their last four matches have seen them beaten.
