Earls should be fit for Biarritz semi

Keith Earls is expected to be fit and available for Munster’s semi-final clash against Biarritz this Sunday, but it does not look good for captain Paul O’Connell who is now in a race against time.

O’Connell sat out Saturday’s 15-11 defeat against the Ospreys at Thomond Park and is Munster’s biggest injury concern ahead of the clash.
