The major decision is at second row where Paul O'Connelll has been selected to join Mick O'Driscoll.

This leaves Lion Donncha O'Callaghan on the replacements bench.

The preference for Barry Murphy ahead of Trevor Halstead and for Frederico Pucciariello ahead of John Hayes could also be significant to the eventual outcome.

MUNSTER (v Leinster): S Payne; J Kelly, B Murphy, G Connolly, A Horgan; R O'Gara, P Stringer; M Horan, J Flannery, F Pucciariello; M O'Driscoll, P O'Connell; D Leamy, D Wallace, A Foley (capt).

Replacements: J Hayes, D Fogarty, T Hogan D O'Callaghan, M Prendergast, J Manning, T Halstead.
