Two changes for Munster

MUNSTER head coach Anthony Foley has made two changes from the side that beat Sale Sharks for tonight's European Champions Cup clash with Saracens, handing starts to props James Cronin and BJ Botha.

Saracens launched their Champions Cup campaign with an impressive Pool One victory over French heavyweights Clermont Auvergne last weekend - and they welcome back Owen Farrell for tonight's game at Thomond Park.

The England fly-half will make his first start for five weeks having been sidelined with a quad strain.

Munster captain Peter O'Mahony knows they are coming up a strong outfit.

"They [Saracens] have been very impressive," said O'Mahony.

"They have been knocking on the door of Europe for the last few years, and we know they are hungry for success. It's a big game for us.

"They are a fairly complete side. They can attack from all areas, with dangerous players all over the place."
