The Munster U18 Clubs will defend their Interprovincial title tomorrow, 23^rd September against Leinster in Donnybrook (ko 12pm).

Head Coach Noel O’Meara has named his starting line-up which sees two changes in the half back positions.

Scrum half Kevin O’Connor moves to the bench with Charlie O’Doherty taking his place. He joins Ben Daly who starts at out half with Alan Kiely making way to the replacements.

In the championship decider, Munster will set out to continue on their winning performances following their 22-7 victory over Connacht at home in the series opener.

The side went on to secure a convincing 32-7 win over Ulster last Sunday in Thomond Park leading into the series finale.

Leinster, who also remain undefeated in the championship, are sure to make the most of their home advantage, in what promises to be a thrilling conclusion to the 2017 interprovincial series.
