A thumping Round 5 of Guinness PRO14 action is rounded off on Saturday evening as Cardiff Blues look to get back to winning ways at home to in-form Munster.

The Blues have endured a rocky start since their victory over Isuzu Southern Kings on the opening weekend with three defeats, and have not lost four in a row in the same season since ²⁰¹⁵⁄₁₆.

The Blues big news is that Rey Lee-Lo returns to centre-stage, the Samoan ace missed the opening weeks of the season due to his involvement in the Rugby World Cup and goes straight into the starting line-up.

Meanwhile Munster’s Johann van Graan has rung 11 changes to the side that defeated Ospreys last time out with only the quartet of Jack O’Donoghue, Dan Goggin, Calvin Nash and Shane Daly retaining their places.

The all-new starting front row sees Jeremy Loughman and Kevin O’Byrne scrum down with Academy prop Keynan Knox on his first Guinness PRO14 start, with Darren O’Shea and Fineen Wycherley forming the second row partnership.

Alby Mathewson and JJ Hanrahan are the starting half-backs and Sammy Arnold makes his first start of the season as he joins Goggin in midfield.

Kick-off: Cardiff Arms Park, Cardiff | 19:35

Players to watch out for: ReyLee-Lo (Cardiff Blues) and AlexWootton (Munster)

To put it simply the Cardiff Blues faithful will be delighted to see the return of Lee-Lo, a centre who can do absolutely everything and starred a number of times last season with crunching hits, dancing feet and plenty of playmaking.

Munster though have their own returning star, Alex Wootton is remembered for scoring some dazzling tries last season and overcomes a knee injury for his first appearance since March – expect fireworks.

Key stat: The last four fixtures between the two sides have all been won by the home side on the day.
