What time and channel is Leinster v Lyon on? TV info, team news, betting odds and more for the Champions Cup clash

Leinster will aim to secure a top seeding for the semi-finals when they take on Lyon this weekend.

Leo Cullen's side have already secured qualification for the knock-out stages after winning their first four matches in Pool 1 with three bonus points.

These sides met back in November in France with Leinster running out 13-6 winners.
