We’re a good team, we’ll be well prepared and we’ll look forward to the challenge. I think this is Munster’s 18th quarter-final. This is our third, so history dictates that they should probably be favourites. They’ve got all the big-game experience.” Rory Scannell (Munster): “We’ve just fallen short in the last two years, but a lot of the squad have got experience now and we have the ambition to go one step further. The weekend is obviously a big challenge and we are not taking Saturday lightly, but that is the ambition.” Team news

Edinburgh captain Stuart McInally returns at hooker and there are also recalls for lock Grant Gilchrist, wing Damien Hoyland and centre Chris Dean.
Fly-half Joey Carbery has recovered from a hamstring injury, so is included in Munster's strongest possible side. Jack O'Donoghue makes his first Heineken Champions Cup start of the season in the back row.
