Munster and Ulster face off in the Pro14 this evening -- if you're not bound for Thomond, here are details on where to watch Munster vs Ulster.

Where to watch Munster vs Ulster? 

The game is live on TG4 and BBC 2 Northern Ireland, with kick off at 5.35pm at Thomond Park.

What are the stakes?

Munster are secure in the playoffs of the Pro14, and Ulster, in spite of an insipid season, have a shot at sneaking into the playoffs, but need favours from elsewhere.

Ulster need a bonus-point win in Limerick, and hope that Edinburgh don't earn a single point from their Scottish derby with Glasgow Warriors.

What are the teams? 

Munster have decided to rest a number of their frontline players after last weeks' deeply disappointing European exit to Racing. Mike Sherry captains a side featuring JJ Hanrahan at out-half, with only Sammy Arnold the only player retaining his spot from the Racing game.

Stephen Fitzgerald; Calvin Nash, Sammy Arnold, Dan Goggin, Darren Sweetnam; JJ Hanrahan, Duncan Williams; James Cronin, Mike Sherry (C), Brian Scott; Gerbrandt Grobler, Darren O’Shea; Dave O’Callaghan, Conor Oliver, Robin Copeland.

Replacements: Rhys Marshall, Jeremy Loughman, Stephen Archer, Jean Kleyn, Jack O’Donoghue, James Hart, Bill Johnston, Shane Daly.

Ulster, meanwhile, have a number of their big names back. Craig Gilroy returns from suspension and is joined on the field by Rory Best and Iain Henderson. Tommy Bowe is on the bench for the final game of his career.
