WATCH: Johann van Graan on the test Leinster bring ahead of Saturday’s game

Munster are heading into Saturday’s game with Pro14 champions Leinster on the back of two defeats from their last two outings.

Ahead of the fixture, Munster Head Coach Johann van Graan said that this is a game that his charges have been looking forward to but also acknowledged that it is a huge test.

“You just have to look at their last two performances and what they have done over the last year to recognise their quality.

“We approach every game the same. We would love to have won the last two, it was small margins. Before that we had six in a row in terms of wins and a draw against Exeter.

“That’s ebbs and flows of the season. It’s literally small moments but we have no excuse. We want to improve week on week. That’s behind us now and we are looking forward to the next challenge.
