Director of rugby Philippe Saint-Andre said: "The win against Clermont last week was a massive achievement but is now consigned to the record books.

"If we were to lose this weekend we would undo all the good work of last week. Munster may only just have won last week, but they are a great side and we expect a big performance from them on Sunday. Edgeley Park is sold out and it should be a great occasion for everyone."

SALE SHARKS (v Munster): R Lamont; M Cueto, L McAlister, R Keil, D Doherty; R Wigglesworth, D Peel; L Faure, N Briggs, E Roberts; S Chabal, B Cockbain; C Jones, L Abraham, J Fernandez Lobbe (capt).

Replacements: M Jones, S Turner, D Schofield, J White, C Hodgson, M Tait, C Bell.
