A very good afternoon from wherever you may be, I am Usie and I have the pleasure of bringing you Pro14 Action this afternoon. It's the Dragons that play host to Irish powerhouse Munster.

A rip-roaring run of form has dragged the Irish side to the summit of Conference A, while Dragons have work to do if they are to close the gap with Ulster in Conference B.

But the Welsh outfit have claimed some sizeable scalps in recent weeks; Edinburgh Rugby and Ospreys both fell victim to a Dragons blitz, a trick they will look to once more repeat at Rodney Parade.

Munster enter the fixture with four wins on the bounce, while they have emerged victorious from 10 of their last 12 encounters in all competitions. But the Dragons are a force to be reckoned with on home soil, with all of their four Guinness PRO14 wins this season coming at Rodney Parade.
