Munster will be without captain Peter O’Mahony for Saturday’s Heineken Champions Cup Round of 16 knockout clash with Toulouse as the men in red look to rebound from last week’s PRO14 final defeat at Thomond Park.

O’Mahony misses out due to the thigh laceration he sustained in last Saturday’s 16-6 loss to Leinster at the RDS but there is a boost for head coach with lock Fineen Wycherley named on the bench after rehabbing the neck injury he suffered against Scarlets three weeks ago.
