Rob Harley, Chris Fusaro and Josh Strauss continue in the back-row.

Scrum-half Henry Pyrgos is named on the bench after recovering from a knee injury and he could make his first appearance since the narrow to defeat to Bath in January.

Glasgow Warriors head coach Gregor Townsend said: “We’re looking forward to returning to action after our recent break and we’ve been boosted this week by the return of our Scotland internationals.

“We’ve had some great battles with Leinster over the past few seasons and we’re expecting another one tomorrow evening.

“It’ll be the first time we’ve returned to the RDS since last season’s final and we know we’ll need to play our best rugby if we’re to come away with a positive result against the defending champions.”
