The European Cup has announced the referees for Rounds 3 and 4 of the Heineken Cup and the Amlin Challenge Cup.

Nigel Owens will take charge of the first Heineken Cup match to be staged at the new Dublin home of Irish when Leinster play their Round 4 match against Clermont Auvergne at the 50,000 capacity Aviva Stadium on Saturday, 18 December.
