Tommy O'Donnell replaces Chris Cloete on the flank.

James Cronin, Rhys Marshall and John Ryan form a new look front row.

The back line is unchanged.

Keith Earls remains sidelined with a hamstring injury. Kiwi scrum-half Alby Mathewson returns to the bench.

The game is a repeat of the famous 'Miracle Match' of 2003.

Munster coach Johann van Graan has been catching up on his history.

He said: "A few people have shown me, I've dug in a bit on Youtube to look at what they call the miracle match.

"Two brilliant clubs in Europe, both got a rich history, so I'm sure it will be the same this weekend again with Munster and Gloucester.
