The draw for the pool positions for the 2006 / 2007 Heineken Cup will be made next month.
The 24 teams who have qualified for the tournament will be drawn into six Pools of four teams each.
The No 1 seeded teams from each of the six nations England, Ireland, Italy, France, Scotland (Edinburgh Gunners) and Wales (Cardiff Blues) - will be drawn in separate Pools.
Five of the Pools will have no more than one team from the same country. One of the Pools will have two French teams as France have earned an additional seventh place by virtue of being the most successful nation out of England, Italy and France in the 2005 / 2006 tournament.
