Harlequins has decided to play the match at its own stadium as a gesture of appreciation to its supporters and players. "The Stoop ranks among the finest club rugby grounds not just in this country, but also in Europe and is perfectly capable of hosting big occasions such as this quarter-final." said Harlequins Chief Executive David Ellis. "Our players have worked hard to secure a home quarter-final and our loyal supporters have backed them every step of the way. It is only right therefore that we play the match where our players and supporters are most comfortable."

Confirmation of the day and kick-off time of the quarter-final is expected during the week when ERC, the tournament organiser, completes its negotiations with television broadcasters.

Harlequins will announce details of ticketing later this week; the club's season ticket holders will have a priority booking period. Supporters should monitor the club's website www.quins.co.uk and social media channels for further announcements.
