Ireland World Cup players John Hayes, Donncha O'Callaghan and David Wallace will start with Jerry Flannery, Marcus Horan and Denis Leamy on the bench for Munster's Magner's League trip to Glasgow.

All told there are eight changes, two positional, this week as Rua Tipoki moves to thirteen with Lifeimi Mafi at twelve. The return of John Hayes sees Tony Buckley switch to loosehead prop.

Elsewhere, O'Callaghan takes over from Mark Melbourne who is named on the bench.

Niall Ronan earns a well deserved breather with Wallace getting the openside berth in a side that once again will be led by Anthony Foley winning his 184th competitive Munster cap.

MUNSTER (v Glasgow): S Payne; B Carney, R Tipoki, L Mafi, I Dowling; P Warwick, P Stringer; T Buckley, F DSheahan, J Hayes, D O'Callaghan, M O'Driscoll, A Quinlan, D Wallacer, A Foley (capt).

Replacements: J Flannery, M Horan, M Melbourne, D Leamy; T O'Leary, J Manning, K Earls.
