In-Depth Analysis
Munster's recent loss to Edinburgh has put them in a precarious position in the URC standings. They are currently outside the top four, which is needed for a home quarter-final. The return of some key players from injury is a positive development, but the continued absence of others is a concern. The match against Glasgow Warriors, who defeated Munster in last season's semi-final, is seen as a must-win. Interim boss Ian Costello welcomes back Ireland loosehead prop Jeremy Loughman, but must do without 5 Ireland stars under IRFU player management rules.
