Hugo Keenan, Tommy O’Brien, Robbie Henshaw, Fintan Gunne, Andrew Porter, Dan Sheehan, RG Snyman, James Ryan, and Scott Penny all come into the team for the game in Dublin. Jack Conan captains Leinster again tomorrow, with Ryan set for his first Leinster start since January in the second row. Leinster have already secured top spot in the URC table but will be keen to end the regular season on a high ahead of the quarter-finals in two weekends. Meanwhile, third-placed Glasgow have welcomed Lions centre Sione Tuipulotu back to their midfield for what will be the Scotland international’s first appearance of any kind since January. Tuipulotu has been sidelined with a pectoral injury but makes his long-awaited comeback alongside Huw Jones, who has also been selected in Andy Farrell’s Lions squad. Second row Scott Cummings, another picked for the Lions tour this summer, shifts to the Glasgow bench but tighthead prop Zander Fagerson remains sidelined due to injury. Hooker Seb Stephen will make his Glasgow debut in their starting XV. Advertisement 15. Hugo Keenan 14. Tommy O’Brien 13. Robbie Henshaw 12. Jordie Barrett 11. Jimmy O’Brien 10. Sam Prendergast 9.
