No side has ever won on the road in the last-four of the competition, but that is the feat Steve Tandy’s men must accomplish if they are to reach the final in Belfast. The Ospreys have already tasted victory in Limerick once this season, and Wales No 8 Baker sees no reason why they cannot repeat that result.
“We know no side has ever won away at this stage but those sorts of records are the ones that are there to be broken. We are capable of winning and we are working hard to do it,” said Baker.
“Munster are probably one of the biggest clubs around and they have a history of winning cups and league titles. They have been the ultimate team.
“Watching them growing up you could see they all played for the shirt and that Munster badge and they are a world class team. But we are confident.
“We have a young squad and we were written off at the beginning of the season. I can’t wait and it will be a good experience to go there again.”
Baker, 22, is set to go up against Munster’s powerful South African born back-rower CJ Stander, and expects a stern test.
“CJ is a powerful player and he gets through a lot of work for them,” said Baker. “He gives them a lot of go forward and he is also a good defender so we will make sure we do our homework on him. But we have plenty of strength in our back-row and we will be wanting to show that.”
