Muliaina was withdrawn five-minutes before the break last night, and is due to depart for Zebre at the end of this season. 

 

On the pitch, it's a huge day for Leinster today – with Bath their opponents in the quarter finals of the Champions Cup. 

Jamie Heaslip captains the side upon his return from international duty, taking his place in a side that also includes Sean O'Brien, Cian Healy and Rob Kearney. 

Heaslip says the pressure's on to avoid disappointing a wide range of people.

At 5.45, Clermont play host to Northampton.
