Munster will be aiming to start their Champions Cup campaign with back-to-back victories when they travel to France to take on Castres on Friday evening.
While the Irish outfit were securing a convincing 33-7 success over Stade Francais, their next opponents were getting their European season underway with a tough 38-8 defeat away at Premiership champions Northampton Saints.
Castres v Munster Odds
(Odds will display when markets are available)
Despite a disappointing opening weekend loss at Franklin's Gardens, Castres will be hoping to use home advantage against their Irish counterparts, who have suffered an indifferent start to the 2024/25 season.
Form seemed to go out of the window as Munster produced a dominant display last weekend, but they have made six changes for the trip to France.
Two-time Champions Cup winners Munster will be looking to building on their excellent record against Castres after winning four of their five previous meetings.
