There are ten changes to the team that faced Leinster last weekend as Shane Daly, Sammy Arnold, Rory Scannell, Fineen Wycherley and Jack O’Donoghue keep their places.
Peter O’Mahony returns to captain the side with Joey Carbery making his first start of the season at out-half.
Daly moves to full-back with Andrew Conway and Keith Earls coming into the side on either flank.
Scannell and Arnold continue their centre partnership with Conor Murray in the half-backs with Carbery.
There is an all-changed front row of Jeremy Loughman, Niall Scannell and Academy man Keynan Knox.
Wycherley and Darren O’Shea start in the engine room with a back-row of O’Mahony, O’Donoghue and Arno Botha, who returns from suspension.
Academy duo Diarmuid Barron and Jack O’Sullivan are named among the replacements. John Ryan and Gavin Coombes have recovered from knocks to also take their places in the squad.
