To facilitate recovery, nutritional interventions are often employed, including Montmorency cherry juice (MC). We assessed the effects of MC on recovery following RL match\u2010play in eleven male professional RL players who played in two matches (7\u2010days apart) with MC or placebo (PLB) supplemented for 5\u2010days pre\u2010match, matchday and 2\u2010days post\u2010match. Blood was collected 48h pre\u2010match, half\u2010time, within 30\u2010mins of full\u2010time and 48h post\u2010match to assess Interleukin concentrations (IL\u20106, \u22128 \u221210). Self\u2010reported sleep, fatigue, mood, stress, and muscle\u2010soreness were assessed 24h pre and 24 and 48h post\u2010matches with muscle function assessed 48h pre and 48h post\u2010match. No differences in distance covered (6334 \u00b1 1944 Vs 6596 \u00b1 1776m) and total collisions (28 \u00b1 11 Vs 29 \u00b1 13) were observed between both matches. There was a small albeit significant increase in IL\u20106, \u22128 and \u221210 concentrations pre to post\u2010match in both PLB (IL\u20106: 0.83 \u00b1 0.92 Vs 2.91 \u00b1 1.40, IL\u20108: 2.16 \u00b1 1.22 Vs 3.91 \u00b1 1.61 and IL\u201010: 2.51 \u00b1 2.14 Vs 0.61 \u00b1 0.50 pg\n                    <jats:sup>.<\/jats:sup>\n                    mL\n                    <jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup>\n                    ) and MC groups (IL\u20106: 0.53 \u00b1 0.53 Vs 2.24 \u00b1 1.73, IL\u20108: 1.85 \u00b1 0.96 Vs 3.46 \u00b1 1.12 and IL\u201010: 0.48 \u00b1 0.50 Vs 2.54 \u00b1 2.10 pg\n                    <jats:sup>.<\/jats:sup>\n                    mL\n                    <jats:sup>\u22121<\/jats:sup>\n                    ), although there were no significant differences between groups (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt;0.05). Likewise, there was a small but significant increase in muscle soreness (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    =0.01) and reduction in CMJ (\n                    <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                    =0.003) with no significant differences between groups.
