The six top seeds from the six nations - Biarritz Olympque Pays Basque (France), London Wasps (England), Munster (Ireland), Rugby Calvisano (Italy), Glasgow Rugby (Scotland) Neath-SWansea Ospreys (Wales) - will each head one of the six Pools.

No two teams from the same country will be drawn in the same Pool except for the seventh French club, Clermont Auvergne, who could face any of their six domestic rivals.
