Coach Tony McGahan expects a tough ride at The Sportsground: "Connacht are always formidable opponents particularly at home and recent games have been extremely close. Last season it could have gone either way, I think it was a try apiece. They have a solid defence.
"They have already turned Leinster over and they come into this game on the back of a good Challenge Cup run. So they'll be full of confidence and with the crowd behind them we face a massive task," said McGahan.
MUNSTER: D Hurley, D Howlett, K Earls, K Lewis, B Murphy, L Mafi, I Dowling, P Warwick, R O'Gara, J Manning, P Stringer, M Prendergast, T O'Leary, F Pucciariello, M Horan, T Ryan, D Fogarty, J Flannery, F Sheahan, T Buckley, J Hayes, D O'Callaghan, D Ryan, P O'Connell, M O'Driscoll, A Quinlan, J Coughlan, N Ronan, D Wallace, N Williams.
