Munster are set to welcome their Ireland internationals back for Sunday's Investec Champions Cup pool encounter with Toulon at Stade Felix Mayol (13:00 GMT).

Tadhg Beirne, Craig Casey, Jack Crowley and Tom Farrell were all rested for last week's United Rugby Championship loss to in-form Ulster in Belfast.

However, Munster head coach Clayton McMillan will be without John Hodnett (thumb) and Alex Kendellen (ankle) because of injury.

Centre Alex Nankivell is fit after picking up a knock against Ulster, while prop Oli Jager has resumed full training after three months out following a concussion against Edinburgh on 18 October.

Munster opened their Champions Cup campaign with a resounding 31-3 win over Gloucester before suffering a heavy 40-14 loss away to Bath.
