Leinster team to face the Ospreys...

Isaac Boss will partner Jonathan Sexton - now just 28 points shy of the 1,000 point career mark for the province - in a side which sees several changes to the line-up which started last weekend's Challenge Cup semi-final win.

Andrew Conway comes into the outside backs meaning that Fergus McFadden will partner Ian Madigan at centre.

Brian O'Driscoll is given a 'breather' being named on the bench after his exertions in recent weeks. Meanwhile, Jamie Heaslip, Kevin McLaughlin and Mike Ross are rested after picking up knocks last weekend. Gordon D'Arcy has made good progress after his calf strain and should come back into calculations for next weekend's semi-final.

In all there are 13 home-grown players in the starting side which will be led once more by Leo Cullen. Fresh from his British & Irish Lions selection, Sean O'Brien has recovered from injury and the Tullow man starts at number eight in a back-row which includes Shane Jennings and Rhys Ruddock.

Jack McGrath will make his 35th senior appearance and he is joined in the front row by Ireland hooker Sean Cronin and Jamie Hagan.
