Squad Update | No new injury worries for Munster ahead of Northampton contest

Munster could only claim a losing bonus point in their round one clash with Toulouse in Thomond Park last Sunday.

The Munster squad started preparations at the HPC on Tuesday ahead of Sunday’s Champions Cup Pool B round two game away to Northampton at Franklin’s Gardens (1pm – live on BT Sport, BeIN Sports, SuperSports & FloRugby).

On the injury front, there are no new concerns to report following Sunday’s clash against Toulouse.

There is good news for Stephen Archer (ankle) and Jack O’Sullivan (knee) as they are increasing their training volumes this week.

Continuing to rehab:  Tom Ahern (shoulder), RG Snyman (knee), Fineen Wycherley (shoulder), Paddy Kelly (head), Jack Daly (knee), Andrew Conway (knee), Keynan Knox (knee), Simon Zebo (knee).
