Preview

Munster go into the final round of Pool games with a slim chance of qualifying for a record 19th Champions Cup quarter-final.

Currently lying third in Pool 4, a win over Ospreys is imperative if Munster are to stand any chance of claiming second place and a possible quarter-final place.

The Ospreys will be a dangerous proposition as they travel to Limerick with nothing to lose and are set to field their strongest side of the season with their Wales internationals making a welcome return in recent weeks.

Elsewhere in Pool 4, Munster need Racing 92 to defeat Saracens in London and ensure the reigning champions pick up fewer than two match points.

If Munster can grasp second place in Pool 4, results elsewhere will dictate whether or not the province will progress to the last eight.
