Leinster have confirmed their United Rugby Championship clash with Munster on the October Bank Holiday weekend will be played at Aviva Stadium. Leinster are going back to the RDS - now rebranded as Laya Arena - this season after the stadium's two-year redevelopment. They will play their first competitive game of the campaign there against Cardiff on 10 October. However the province will then make a quick return to Lansdowne Road, where they played most of their home matches last season. It's been confirmed the inter-pro derby against Munster will take place at the Aviva on Saturday, 24 October, 6pm kick-off. Last year the fixture took place at Croke Park, with Munster running out 31-14 winners in front of just under 52,000 fans.
