Hello and welcome to Ultimate Rugby's coverage of this afternoon's Champion's Cup fixture which sees Munster host Stade Francais.
Munster have a very impressive record at home in Europe with only one loss and 23 wins. However they have been in poor form of late and will need a very good performance in order to reverse last week's loss in Paris.
Stade, meanwhile have a poor record in Ireland with just 2 wins from 9 and sit 11 in the Top14 as they battle to avoid relegation.
Both sides have been boosted by the return from injury of several big names. Munster welcome back Tommy O'Donnell and Sagario while Stade have included Vuidarvuwalu on the wing with Danty filling the spot at centre.
Stay tune for updates coming up at 13.00
Last season's defeat to Clermont Auvergne was their only loss to a French side at Thomond Park (W23, L1).
Stade Francais have won just two games from nine in Ireland, Leinster in 1998 and Ulster in 2008.
New Week. New Game. New Team =Different Result
Munster can't play any worse than last week. Whether or not the decide they feel like playing better this week is anyone's guess.
Lovely Time Travelling there Brian Blarney.
