Last time out in the URC, a 14-man Munster valiantly came back to beat Ulster at Thomond Park before having back to back in sin Europe against Castres and Wasps. They sit in fifth in the URC, but have a game in hand on Glasgow and Ulster who are fourth and third respectively. A win could see the Red Army move to the playoff places.
Zebre sit at the foot of the URC table, are still to win a match this season and have only picked up one point this season. They sacked their Head Coach, Irishman Michael Bradley in the hope of changing their fortunes.
