Despite featuring briefly from the bench in Ireland’s World Cup defeat to Argentina, Rhys Ruddock makes his second start of the season, and he is joined by another late international call-up, Mike McCarthy, in the home team’s pack.

Ruddock is joined in the Leinster back-row by Josh van der Flier, who will make his third start of the term against Gregor Townsend’s charges.
