Leinster supporters will have one last chance to cheer on their heroes before the side's Heineken Cup quarter final in Toulouse after it was confirmed that they will face Italian Super 10 outfit Petrarca Padova in Donnybrook on St. Patrick's Day at 6pm
Petrarca are the former club of Leinster assistant coach David Knox whom the Australian played for three seasons. Knox helped guide the Italians to the national championship in 1986/'87.
 
They are coached by South African Paul Roux and have agreed to the friendly fixture which will be seen as a massive boost for Leinster's preparations given the gap in the fixture calendar for the province during the month of March.
 
Admission is free for season ticket holders and entrance into the ground on the day is €10 (adult) and €5 (schoolchildren) on a first come first served basis.
