Rory Scannell set to make first Pro14 start

Rory Scannell is set for his first start of the Guinness Pro14 campaign tonight as Munster go to Glasgow Warriors looking for a fourth win from four this season.

Their hosts, under new head coach Dave Rennie following the departure of Gregor Townsend to the Scotland job, also remain unbeaten and this represents a litmus test for both Conference A sides as to their early-season credentials as title contenders.

Both teams overcame wobbles in Wales last weekend, with the Irish province scraping past Ospreys for a 21-16 win in the Swansea rain while Glasgow needed a late penalty miss from Cardiff’s Steve Shingler to collect their third win of the season.
