It looks like a challenge every bit as intimidating as a trip to Stade Marcel Michelin for the young Munster side preparing to face Ulster in Belfast this evening.

Yet having seen their more experienced squadmates battle to an epic victory at Clermont Auvergne last time out, there is evidence of a belief within Johann van Graan’s party heading to Kingspan Stadium that a lack of composure and confidence will not be an issue, whichever way the odds are stacked.
