Form Guide
Leinster produced one of their weakest performances of season against the Ospreys in the URC on Saturday, but still managed to pull off the win away from home and maintain their unbeaten record this season.
In Europe they have scored 99 points and shipped just 10, with their last game being a 57-0 home win against Gloucester. They are in their usual formidable mid-season form, and it would be a surprise if they do not come away with a bonus point win.
Gloucester are in the midst of decent season. They defeated Bordeaux in their other Champions Cup fixture, and are currently fourth in the Gallagher Premiership, and only lost by three points to runaway leaders Saracens last Friday.
Team News
Garry Ringrose captains a very strong looking Leinster side, and Hugo Keenan is set to win his 50th cap for the team. Ryan Baird starts again in the back row while Ross Byrne gets the nod at #10.
