  • Rabodirect PRO12 PREVIEW 2013/14 ROUND 20 PREVIEWS ROUND 20 FIXTURES
    RaboDirect PRO12 PREVIEW 2013/14 Round 20: 18-20 April 2014 ROUND 20 PREVIEWS With the announcement last week from European Professional Club Rugby confirming the structure of European competition next season, the RaboDirect PRO12 Round 20 games over the Easter weekend take on even more significance. Pick of the round must be the Good Friday fixture at Scotstoun between Glasgow Warriors and Ulster. Glasgow have already secured the automatic Scottish European Rugby Champions Cup qualification spot, but with a game in hand over their nearest rivals, can still claim a RaboDirect PRO12 home Play-Off spot. Winning this fixture is vital for either team’s chances of hosting a home knock-out game. Also on Good Friday Leinster welcome Benetton Treviso to the RDS in Dublin. Treviso have pulled out an 8 point lead over Zebre in the table, and victory this weekend, dependent upon Zebre’s results could see them claim the Italian spot in Europe next season. Leinster on the other hand are looking to secure not only top seeding in the RaboDirect PRO12 Play- Offs, but also the guaranteed spot for Irish participation in the senior European competition for 2014/15. The other two Irish provinces, Connacht and Munster, meet at the Sportsground on Saturday with the visitors the third Irish team in the battle for both the RaboDirect PRO12 Play-Offs and guaranteed European qualification. Over in Italy the same day Zebre know this is a must win game if they are to stand any chance of overtaking Treviso for the Italian European Rugby Champions Cup spot, whilst Edinburgh, only 10 points behind Scarlets and with a game in hand over their rivals, can still claim one of the three European places awarded to the RaboDirect PRO12 teams on merit.
