With just three weeks until Ireland U20s Six Nations opener against Scotland, players have a chance to show the coaches what they are made of as Richie Murphy's side face Leinster 'A' in a pre-Championship friendly on Friday lunchtime.

The 2021 U20 Six Nations Championship will be between June 19 and July 13 with all matches taking place in Cardiff to reduce squads travelling during the pandemic.
