Cardiff v Munster live: Kick-off time, TV details and score updates
@Source: walesonline.co.uk
Cardiff are looking to take a big step towards the United Rugby Championship play-offs as they welcome Munster to the Arms Park on Friday night.
The Blue and Blacks welcome the Irish side to the Welsh capital for their final home game of the season, with just two matches in South Africa to follow. Matt Sherratt's side currently sit sixth in the table on 41 points, one place and one point ahead of tonight's opponents - meaning the result will have huge consequences for both sides.
Despite another dramatic season at the Arms Park, with the Welsh Rugby Union having recently taken over the club after they were placed into temporary administration, they remain firmly in contention for the play-offs.
However, Sherratt says his side will need their best performance of the season against Munster in order to move one step closer to finishing in the top eight.
Cardiff have made three changes from the side that beat the Ospreys at Judgement Day, with prop Danny Southworth, second-row Josh McNally and back-row Thomas Young replacing Corey Domachowski, Ben Donnell and Alex Mann.
Kick-off is at 7.35pm, with the match being broadcast on BBC Two Wales. You can also follow the action in the live blog below.
Cardiff: Cam Winnett; Josh Adams, Harri Millard, Ben Thomas, Gabriel Hamer-Webb; Callum Sheedy, Johan Mulder; Danny Southworth, Liam Belcher (capt), Keiron Assiratti, Josh McNally, Teddy Williams, James Botham, Thomas Young, Taulupe Faletau.
Replacements: Evan Lloyd, Corey Domachowski, Rhys Litterick, Rory Thornton, Alun Lawrence, Ben Donnell, Aled Davies, Tinus de Beer.
