Munster have made five changes to their side for Sunday's Pro 14 interprovincial derby with Connacht at the Aviva Stadium.
All five changes come in the pack, with Tadhg Beirne starting in the second row for his first Munster appearance in nine months.
Jeremy Loughman, John Ryan, Fineen Wycherley and Chris Cloete are also included.
A win for Munster will guarantee their semi final place.
Former Munster pair Conor Oliver and Sammy Arnold will make their first starts for Connacht in that game.
Andy Friend has changed all but one of his team, with Eoghan Masterson the only man retained.
Tiernan O'Halloran and Quinn Roux are brought in while new signing Abraham Papali'i makes his debut at the base of the scrum.
