There are no major fresh injury concerns for the province arising from Friday night's 26-11 victory over the Cardiff Blues in a game which saw Eoin O'Malley, who was a late addition to the panel in place of the injured Fionn Carr, make his 50th appearance for the province when he appeared as a second half replacement.
Springbok prop Heinke van der Merwe was another late withdrawal after being rested to recover fully from a knock to the leg, but management are confident that both he and winger Carr will be available ahead of Friday's midday team announcement.
Isa Nacewa missed the victory in Wales at the weekend with a recurrence of an arm injury sustained in January and is unlikely to be involved this weekend.
Ian Madigan, who completed a 100% successful kicking tally of 16 points on Friday, is in line to make his 21st appearance of the season - and his 70th in Leinster colours - if he features this weekend. Meanwhile, Ireland international Rhys Ruddock is one cap away from reaching the half century appearance milestone.
The management expect the return of a number of players who have had limited game time after their involvement with the Ireland Six Nations squad in recent weeks.
