In the tight five, Dave Kilcoyne comes into the starting front row at loosehead alongside Eusebio Guinazu and BJ Botha, while Donncha O'Callaghan and Billy Holland form the second row partnership for the fourth successive game.

The back row sees Dave O'Callaghan return at 6 with Sean Dougall and CJ Stander continuing at 7 and 8 respectively.

Felix Jones comes into the back three on the right wing alongside Ronan O'Mahony on the opposite flank.

Leinster have made seven changes for their meeting with Scarletts in Wales.

Luke Fitzgerald starts on the left wing with Fergus McFadden on the right wing and Zane Kirchner at full back. 

In the half backs, Eoin Reddan starts at scrum half to partner Jimmy Gopperth. 

There are five changes to the pack named to start last weekend. 

It's a completely new front row with Cian Helay, Sean Cronin and Marty Moore starting. 

Like Fitzgerald, Mike McCarthy was also retained by the Irish management last weekend, and comes into the second row to partner Kane Douglas .

In the back row Rhys Ruddock captains the side from blind side, with Dominic Ryan starting at open side. 

Jack Conan is once again selected at the base of the scrum having recovered from the ankle injury that forced him out of the starting 15 before kick off last Friday.
