England’s Karl Dickson will be the man in the middle for Leinster Rugby’s Heineken Champions Cup Pool A meeting with Montpellier at the GGL Stadium on Saturday, 12 December (KO 6.30pm local/5.30pm Irish, live on BT Sport).
Dickson last took charge of a Leinster game in January 2020 when Leo Cullen’s side defeated Benetton Rugby 18-0 in Round 6 of last season’s pool stage.
