The Sharks face Munster in a highly anticipated United Rugby Championship match at Limerick's Thomond Park.

The Sharks, under the leadership of JP Pietersen, prepare for a thrilling United Rugby Championship game against Munster, set for Saturday night in Limerick.

Sitting fifth in the standings, the Sharks are keen to extend their strong form after securing three URC victories and an impressive away win in the EPCR Challenge Cup. Munster, currently ninth, have experienced a rocky start with one win, one draw, and two losses but will aim to gain momentum at home.

With the Sharks' attack showing flair and speed this season, they look to exploit these strengths to secure crucial points on the road before the competition resumes in December.

The team has had to adjust their lineup due to injuries to key players André Esterhuizen and Jurenzo Julius, moving Ethan Hooker to inside centre alongside Suleiman Hartzenberg.

The match at Thomond Park kicks off at 19:30 South African time, with teams ready to showcase their competitive edge in what promises to be a dynamic encounter.
