If Glasgow win, they would meet either Leinster or Harlequins in the quarter-finals. If it was Leinster then Glasgow would be away but if it was Quins Glasgow would be at home, based on pool stage rankings.

If Edinburgh win, they would be at home in the quarter-finals to the winners of the match between Bayonne and the Bulls.
