The action begins tomorrow afternoon at the Ricoh Arena (3pm, BT Sport) with Saracens and Munster meeting in a repeat of their 2017 semi-final that saw the English side triumph 26-10. Munster are aiming to end a wait since 2008 for a final appearance.
On Sunday afternoon at the Aviva Stadium (3.15pm, Virgin Media One), there is an Easter Sunday showdown between reigning champions Leinster and French side Toulouse.
The sides have already met twice this season in the pool stage, Toulouse winning out 28-27 in October in France before Leinster reversed that outcome with a 29-13 victory at the RDS in January.
But who do you think will advance? Let us know.
