Zebo poised for landmark Munster appearance as Dave Kearney returns for Leinster


Simon Zebo will make his 150th appearance for Munster tomorrow evening. 

He's been named to start in their United Rugby Championship meeting with Glasgow.

Zebo's inclusion is one of eight changes to the team, following Munster's win over Zebre a fortnight ago.

Gavin Coombes returns from international duty to start in the back row, while Stephen Archer and Chris Cloete also come into the pack.

Mike Haley, Chris Farrell, Rory Scannell and Ben Healy all join the backline.

Meanwhile, Leinster are set to hand Dave Kearney a first start of the season.

He's back in the side for their meeting with Edinburgh.

Kearney's season has been marred by injury following ankle surgery at the outset of the season.

It'll be his 170th appearance for the province.

Leinster's game against Edinburgh kicks off at 6pm in the RDS.

Munster are away to Glasgow, where there's an 8.15pm start.

Munster (vs Glasgow): Mike Haley; Shane Daly, Chris Farrell, Rory Scannell, Simon Zebo; Ben Healy, Neil Cronin; Jeremy Loughman, Diarmuid Barron, Stephen Archer; Jean Kleyn, Fineen Wycherley; Jack O’Donoghue (C), Chris Cloete, Gavin Coombes.
