Páirc Uí Chaoimh is one of the live options to stage Munster's "Clash Of The Champions" with Super Rugby giants Crusaders next February 3 but the match venue will not be decided for at least a month, the Irish Examiner understands.

The Irish province, newly crowned BKT United Rugby Championship champions, announced a blockbuster showdown with the seven-in-a-row Super Rugby title winners from New Zealand on Thursday morning.
