Connacht daring to dream on return to Champions Cup

Connacht are preparing to return to the Champions Cup when Saracens visit the Dexcom Stadium on Saturday, but head coach Stuart Lancaster has yet to settle on his starting XV.

Shayne Bolton has passed HIA protocols, experienced hooker Dave Heffernan is back training, while talented youngster Harry West may be available, as may David O’Connor. But Lancaster has yet to decide whether Irish internationals Finlay Bealham and Mack Hansen will be in action after playing in the first three fixtures this season.
