Reigning European champions Toulouse travel to the Aviva Stadium in Dublin to face 2009 winners Leinster in the first Heineken Cup semi-final this Saturday.
Toulouse beat Leinster at the same stage last year on the way to winning a record fourth Heineken Cup. In this year's quarter-final Guy Noves' side proved their ability to win away from home on the big occasions as they beat Biarritz in San Sebastian with a dramatic 27-20 extra-time victory.
However, Leinster, who beat Leicester Tigers in the 2009 final, will be optimistic of overturning the traveling Frenchmen after putting in some of the most impressive performances of this year's tournament, including a 17-10 quarter-final victory over the Tigers.
