RECAP: Munster v Ulster

READERS’ FORUM: Welcome to our live coverage of the Rainbow Cup Pro14 Round Two match between Munster and Ulster at Thomond Park.

Ulster will still be smarting from their defeats to Connacht in the opening round of the Rainbow Cup and then Leicester in the Challenge Cup semifinals.

The Ulstermen have not suffered three first-team losses on the bounce since 2018, but they hold a positive record over the Pro14 runners-up, having lost just two of the last seven meetings.

That said, their most recent success in Limerick was a 19-17 victory in May 2014, while Munster’s only two home defeats this season have come against Pro14 winners Leinster and Heineken Champions Cup finalists Toulouse.
