DONNACHA RYAN HAS had a terrible time with injuries this season but he is finally getting a run of games at the perfect time for Anthony Foley and Munster.

Ryan will partner Paul O’Connell at second row when Munster run out at Ravenhill tomorrow afternoon, with the inclusion of the Ireland captain one of three changes to the team.

Amazingly, it will be the first time that the duo have played together at second row since away to Perpignan in December 2013.

There is one other change to the pack, with Eusebio Guinazu coming in for Duncan Casey at hooker while Denis Hurley has been pickled to play alongside Andrew Smith in the centre.

An away win for Munster will almost certainly see them claim a home Pro12 semi-final, so there is plenty to play for.

The game kicks off tomorrow at 14.40.
