Connacht scrumhalf Conor McPhillips will make his first start since November when Michael Bradley's side face defending champions Ospreys in the Magner's Celtic League tomorrow.

McPhillips replaces Conor O'Loughlin and in the only other personnel change John Muldoon will start at number eight after recovering from injury.

Bradley has also opted to swap Matt Mostyn from the wing to the centre, with Daniel Riordan going the other way.

Connacht are just four points behind Ospreys but face a stern test against a side who had 13 players starting for Wales in their opening Six Nations win against England in Twickenham.

Kick-off at the Liberty Stadium is at 5.30pm.

Connacht: G Duffy; D Riordan, M Mostyn, M Deane, A Wynne; A Dunne, C McPhillips; B Wilkinson, A Flavin, R Morris; M Swift, A Farley (C); M McCarthy, J O'Connor, J Muldoon.

Replacements: J Fogarty, R Loughney, D Gannon, R Ofisa, C Rigney, C O'Loughlin, T Donnelly.
