MUNSTER FANS ARE pointing their cars towards Limerick at the moment – on a busy weekend of sport Shannonside – as Munster welcome Benetton Treviso to Thomond Park this evening (7.45pm, TG4).

Scott Deasy is named at full-back for an injury-ravaged home side; it will be the 22-year-old’s first league start of the season, though he came off the bench in the rout of Toulon last weekend.

Other than that, Munster name a largely unchanged squad from the one that saw off Toulon last week, tough Marcus Horan is out through an injury sustained in the gym. Ronan O’Gara will skipper the side as Denis Leamy is also injured.

The Tipperary man’s place at No.8 is taken by James Coughlan, a try-scorer when he came on as a replacement against Toulon.

Bettting: Munster 10-11 Draw 35-1  Treviso 10-11

Ulster, meanwhile, travel to Murrayfield to face Edinbugh. Intriguingly for Ireland fans, Paddy Wallace starts at out half, according to the Irish Independent.

South African Ruan Pienaar is the only back to retain his position for the Irish side, with David McIlwaine moving from full-back to left wing and Adam D'Arcy is promoted to the No.15 jersey.

Andrew Trimble moves to the centres alongside Ian Whitten.
