The big team news from the Connacht camp is that Robbie Henshaw will start at 15 in his preferred position. AJ McGinty will pull the strings at ten, with Bundee Aki continuing at 13.

Munster come into this one off the back of a bonus point win in the Champions Cup which will have done plenty to boost the squads confidence. CJ Stander captains from 6, with the impressive James O'Donohue continuing at openside. New signing Amorosino starts on the wing for his first appearance in a Munster shirt.

Massive game from the Pro12, as first place Connacht take on third placed Munster. Both teams back with the full compliment of players. Its been 26 years since Connacht won at Thomond Park, but after a flying start to the season Connacht will have nothing to fear playing this Munster team.

Good evening and welcome to Ultimate Rugby's live coverage of the weekend's second Irish derby.
