Munster’s return to URC action is a tricky home clash against Scarlets, who sit a place above them in the table.

Both teams will have players missing, but contract extensions for the returning Josh Wycherley, Seán O’Brien and Niall Scannell will have has boosted morale in the home camp. Munster attack coach Mike Prendergast has seen big improvements in the youthful Scarlets side this season and knows his team are going to have to be clinical for 80 minutes.
