Did you know?
Academy out-half Ben Healy is the Guinness PRO14 top point scorer so far this season with 38 points after 3 rounds.
Preview
Munster will play the first of five games in the month of November against Dragons in Newport this Sunday.
Dragons enter the clash with one win from three, beating Zebre in their only home game of the new season.
The reds have three wins from three as they saw off Cardiff Blues in the inaugural Monday Night Rugby fixture in Thomond Park.
Dean Ryan’s men have been playing a very exciting brand of rugby this season with Sam Davies and Jamie Roberts pulling the strings in attack.
The last time these sides met in Rodney Parade Munster narrowly won the match by a single point in very poor weather conditions.
Wet conditions are expected again for this Sunday’s encounter.
