23 mins ago 4:56PM Hi everyone and welcome to our live coverage of Leinster v Northampton, the first rugby match at Croke Park since the storied Heineken Cup semi-final of 2009. Leinster gained an upper hand over Munster that day that they have rarely relinquished since. Today they seek to make it through to a third consecutive Champions Cup final, where they would seek to win the trophy for a fifth time in all – and a first since 2018.

Northampton are currently top of the Premiership but it will take a big performance from them to upset the odds. Leinster are 15-point favourites, and are 1/9 to win, with Northampton available at 6/1. Yet, as Leinster know, semi-finals at GAA HQ do not alway go the way of the favourites. Stay with us for updates throughout the game.
