Aviva set to host Leinster-Munster derby clash

THE Aviva Stadium is set to host the glamour clash of Leinster and Munster in the Magners League.

Competition chiefs yesterday unveiled their fixture list for the season with the tie set for the RDS on the opening weekend of October — a week before both sides open their Heineken Cup programme against London Irish and Racing Metro 92 respectively.

However competition sources confirmed last night that ‘moves are afoot’ to play the game at the new state of the art 50,000 capacity Lansdowne Road venue.
