Connacht coach Keane seeks bounce from science

Connacht coach Kieran Keane is hoping science will give his side the edge and help them to a first win over Gloucester in their history.

The Sportsground will be jam-packed for Connacht’s biggest game of the season and with a spot in the last four of the Challenge Cup up for grabs the Connacht coach is desperate for the win that will reinvigorate their season.

As expected, Bundee Aki and Kieran Marmion come straight back into the team, while fellow Ireland squad member Ultan Dillane is named on the bench. And considering Connacht have only won once in the last four outings and need a huge turnaround in fortunes to qualify for the Champions Cup via the PRO14, they need their Grand Slam heroes to perform.
