Munster 28 Gloucester 17

DOUG HOWLETT is just one of a number of senior players set tointensify Munster’s pre-season effort when they take on Gloucester at Musgrave Park tonight (7pm).

CONNACHT’S Euro campaign remains firmly on track. Last evening Connacht proved worthy of their favourites’ tag in this rematch against Worcester Warriors, cementing their place as pool leaders and strengthening their hopes of qualification in this season’s Amlin Challenge Cup.

CONNACHT have gone from underdogs to favourites in just six days to record back-to-back wins over Worcester in tonight's Amlin Challenge Cup fixture at the Galway Sportsground (7pm).

Coach Michael Bradley has gone for the same 15 that inflicted the 26-21 defeat on Worcester for the return match at The Sportsground in the Challenge Cup on Friday night.
