- Tigers lost to Leinster in quarter-finals last year
- ‘It is an incredibly difficult challenge’
Leicester’s Jack van Poortvliet is relishing the chance to renew his rivalry with Jamison Gibson-Park. The scrum-halves will line up opposite each other again on Friday when the Tigers visit Dublin to face Leinster in the quarter-finals of the Champions Cup.
Both started last month’s Six Nations encounter when Ireland secured their fourth grand slam by beating England. With the bulk of that side consisting of Leinster players Van Poortvliet knows Leicester’s challenge will not be dissimilar.
