Harlequins 47-19 UlsterHosts through to last 16 but no guaranteed home tie
The knockout stages of this competition do not provide Harlequins with many happy memories (remember Bloodgate?), but they will have another shot at them in April. Their chances of winning one for the first time will be greatly enhanced if they could claim a home tie.
This seven-try win moves Quins into second place, which would be good enough, in Pool 2, level on 15 points with Bath and Toulouse, who play each other in France. Toulouse have a hefty advantage in points difference. If Bath fail to take anything from the match on Sunday, Quins will have that home tie. For Ulster, though, their chances of making the cut are gone. Had they scored a fourth try at the death, they might have retained a mathematical chance of staying in the hunt, but two tries in the final 10 minutes were already quite the return.
