Connacht Eagles team named for penultimate Celtic Cup clash
There are four changes to the Connacht Eagles squad for their penultimate Celtic Cup game against Cardiff Blues A tomorrow at Cardiff Arms Park (k/o 2.30pm).
 
Props Matthew Burke and Conor Kenny come into the side, while there's a start for Joe Maksymiw in the second row with Niall Murray moving to the flanks and Seán Masterson to number 8.
 
Lastly there's a start for Diarmuid Kilgannen on the wing, where he'll have Peter Sullivan opposite him and Conor Hayes at full-back.
 
The Eagles are on a brilliant run of four wins from five, and victory in their last two games could be enough for a place in the final depending on results elsewhere.
 
They currently sit in 3rd place on 18 points, with Leinster (25) and Ulster (21) leading the way.
