Build-up
In January 2015, the tournament organisers confirmed that the Kingspan Stadium in Belfast would host the final. The organisers chose to move away from giving home advantage to the highest placed finisher at the end of the regular season.[8][9]
Munster were looking to win the title for a fourth time, the last win being in 2011 against Leinster, while Glasgow had never won the title.[10][11]
The match was shown live on Sky Sports in Ireland and the UK, on TG4 in Ireland and on BBC Two Scotland in Scotland.[12] Both teams received an allocation of 2,000 tickets after the public sale sold out in April.[13] [14]
Conor Murray was an injury doubt to start for Munster after he was forced off in the semi-final with an injury to the medial ligament in his right knee, he may be replaced again by Duncan Williams at scrum-half.[15][16] Paul O'Connell was expected to play his last game for Munster in the final.[17]
