The Leicester Tigers and Leinster Rugby meet once again in the Investec Champions Cup, renewing a recent run of matchups that has tilted heavily toward the Irish province.
Leinster has won the last four meetings between the clubs—23-14 in 2022, 55-24 in 2023, 27-10 in January 2024 and 36-22 in April 2024. The most recent victory came in Round 16 at Aviva Stadium, setting the tone for the continued competitive gap Leinster has imposed in this fixture.

Leicester enters this contest 3-2 in its last five matches, finding enough consistency to remain competitive, but still searching for a complete performance against one of Europe’s elite.
Leinster, meanwhile, arrives with a 4-1 record in its last five, maintaining form behind its balance of structured attack and defensive clarity.
The sides know each other well, and their recent history suggests a familiar challenge for the Tigers as they host this latest chapter.
The return to Mattioli Woods Welford Road Stadium provides Leicester with a valuable home platform, and both clubs will look to reinforce their early European positioning.
With Leinster’s depth and recent dominance, and Leicester’s need for a breakthrough performance, this matchup features contrasting momentum and potentially decisive moments as they meet again in December.
