HEINEKEN CUP:Leinster will join Munster in the quarter-finals after Felipe Contepomi kicked four penalties in a nervy display to beat Edinburgh 12-3 at the RDS.
With Wasps losing 21-15 away to Castres, it means Michael Cheika’s side will go through, but will face an away date in April.
Their opponents won’t be known until after the Bath versus Toulouse game, with the possibility of an all-Ireland clash still on the cards.
A storming second-half display helped Munster claim all five points on offer in the south of France, winning 39-13.
The result puts them in the second qualifying position behind Cardiff Blues ahead of the final Pool 5 games.
Tony McGahan’s side led 10-6 at half-time after a Tomás O’Leary try and a conversion and penalty from Ronan O’Gara wiped out two early penalties from Julien Audy.
Munster pulled away after the interval with Lifeimi Mafi and substitute Barry Murphy both going over for two tries, while O’Gara would finish the match with 12 points.
