Connacht’s six match winning run in the Guinness PRO12 ended in Ulster on 1 April. Connacht’s only PRO12 defeat at the Sportsground in their nine encounters this season was 3-10 to Ulster on 26th December.
Munster’s last four matches have all been won by the home side on the day whilst the Munstermen’ s only victories outside of Ireland since November have all been on trips to Italy.
Connacht have won two of their last three fixtures with Munster but have never achieved a season’s double over their southern neighbours.
