It is hardly the position they expected to be in - certainly not returning to Parma to play Zebre in the refixed Pro 12 game this Saturday - when Irish eyes are in Thomond Park.
That is fixture, which was called off earlier in the season due to torrential rain, is being played on the same day as Connacht could have been contesting a first Champions Cup quarter-final had they beaten Toulouse, makes it even more difficult. But it is a game Connacht will expect to win, with a bonus, and nothing else at this stage of the campaign will be satisfactory.
