Jack Conan and Dan Leavy both come into the squad in place of CJ Stander and the injured Josh van der Flier.

20-year-old Jordan Larmour looks to be in line to make his international debut from the bench having been named among the substitutes.

Schmidt has gone with the same back-line that started in Paris last weekend meaning Conor Murray and Johnny Sexton continue as half-backs.

Bundee Aki and Robbie Henshaw continue their partnership in the centre with Jacob Stockdale, Kieth Earls and Rob Kearney making up the back three.
