Bundee Aki is set to feature in Connacht’s Champions Cup opener with Bordeaux.
The Ireland centre hasn’t played since the World Cup, but has shaken off the effects of a hamstring injury.
However, scrum-half Colm Reilly is faced with 12 weeks on the sidelines having undergone surgery on an ankle ligament injury.
Oisin Dowling and Tiernan O’Halloran will be assessed closer to the Bordeaux visit after picking up shoulder and foot injuries respectively.
