Connacht have made one change to their side ahead of their European Challenge Cup quarter final against Northampton at Franklin's Gardens on Saturday (kick off: 3pm).
 
Frank Murphy returns to the side at scrum half in what is otherwise an unchanged line up from that which beat the Dragons at the Sportsground last Friday in the Magners League.
 
Connacht will be looking for a repeat of their result of 1997 when they traveled to Northampton and got the win when these two sides faced each other last.
 
Connacht team:
G Duffy; F Carr, N Ta'auso, K Matthews, L Bibo; I Keatley, F Murphy; B Wilkinson, S Cronin, R Loughney; A Browne, A Farley; J Muldoon (C), J O'Connor, R Ofisa.

Replacements:
A Flavin, B McGovern, M Swift, C Rigney, C O'Loughlin, A Dunne, T Nathan.

Not considered due to injury: Kieran Campbell (hip), Tim Donnelly (knee), John Hearty (hip), Michael McCarthy (foot), Robbie Morris (foot).
