Michael Bradley has announced an unchanged side - apart from one positional switch - ahead of Connacht's opening European Challenge Cup match of the season, away to Brive on Friday night (kick-off 7.30pm).

Keith Matthews switches positions with Aidan Wynne, as he moves from the left wing to inside centre with Wynne moving in the opposite direction.

The only change to the squad is the inclusion of experienced back row Colm Rigney, who could well become the ninth player to reach a century of caps for the Western Province should he play a part in the match from the bench.

Connacht team:

G Duffy; O Treviranus, M Deane, K Matthews; A Wynne; T Donnelly, C McPhillips; B Wilkinson, J Fogarty, R Morris; M Swift, A Farley (C); M McCarthy, J O¹Connor, J Muldoon.

Replacements: A Flavin, B McGovern, C Rigney, R Ofisa, C O'Loughlin, P Durcan, D Yapp.
