The action gets underway at 8pm in the Welsh capital.

Last month, Carbery spoke to the Munster website about his hopes for a return to action.

“It’s been pretty tough. Obviously, it’s not nice being injured but I’m pretty blessed to have such a good physio and strength and conditioning team around me and it’s been great to see the lads do so well.”
