The Yellow and Blues will also be without influential flanker Gerhard Vosloo, who also has a hamstring injury. The South African back-row was outstanding in the quarter-final clash, and his presence will be missed not just at the breakdown, but his ability to offload in open-play to unleash the lethal backline they possess with Wesley Fofana and Sitiveni Sivivatu both set to feature.
The former New Zealand wing scored a 60m solo effort against Montpellier as well as setting-up a try for Rougerie, and he will threaten the Munster defence from all over the park, especially playing off the shoulder of both James and Fofana.
