LEINSTER HAVE confirmed their team for Friday’s Champions Cup quarter-final with Leicester Tigers at the Aviva Stadium (kick-off: 8pm).
Garry Ringrose and Caelan Doris replace Jordan Larmour and Josh van der Flier in the only two personnel changes from last week’s last-16 win over Ulster.
Doris comes into the back row alongside Ryan Baird and Jack Conan, with the former set to win his 50th Leinster cap.
Ringrose, meanwhile, forms a centre partnership with Robbie Henshaw for the first time since October’s win over Munster.
The bench is unchanged from last week, with Cian Healy in line to become Leinster’s joint-second-highest-capped player.
