Leinster unchanged for Scarlets clash

Leinster coach Michael Cheika has the luxury of being able to go with the same side that eclipsed The Scarlets for the return leg between the clubs in Saturday afternoon's Heineken Cup round 4 clash in the RDS (kick off: 3.45pm).

The pressure will be on the players to provide another bonus-point win with right wing Shane Horgan looking to add to his 25 tries in the competition.

In the pack, Kevin McLaughlin makes his 11th appearance of the season and starts in the back-row alongside O'Brien and Jamie Heaslip, who is one of 13 full Ireland internationals in the 23-man squad.
