**Scarlets will hope the timing of their trip to Limerick to face Munster works in their favour on Friday night.** Munster clinched their place in the Guinness PRO14 final with two rounds of the regular season to spare thanks to a 20-17 victory over Connacht last week. While the Conference B winners could be forgiven for already having one eye on their March 27 showdown with Leinster, Scarlets are looking to secure Heineken Champions Cup qualification. The Welsh side have a firm grip on third place having enjoyed successive victories over Benetton and Edinburgh in their last two games. **The breakdown** Munster are unbeaten against Welsh opposition since losing to Friday’s visitors at Parc y Scarlets in March 2019. They have won three of the last four meetings between these teams and lead 19-12 in terms of wins in this fixture, with two draws in 33 previous clashes.
