Connacht centre Sammy Arnold says they have to view their trip to face Leinster next Saturday as an opportunity to be the first side to defeat the champions this year rather than dwell on them going into the clash on the back of three defeats.

The 24-year-old said they were disappointed to go down to one of his former sides, Ulster, on Sunday night, with the 32-19 loss at the Sportsground coming on the back of Heineken Champions Cup losses to Racing 92 and Bristol Bears.
