Joe Schmidt has named the Ireland team to play Scotland on Saturday afternoon in his side's penultimate game of this year's Six Nations.

It features two changes from the team which defeated Wales.

Back into the team comes Tadhg Furlong to replace Andrew Porter. Furlong missed the game against Wales due to injury. Porter takes a place on the bench instead of John Ryan.

There's also a place in the team for Garry Ringrose with Chris Farrell, Man of the Match against Wales, missing out due to an injury picked up during training.

Further changes on the bench include Iain Henderson, back from injury, taking the place of Quinn Roux, Jordi Murphy instead of Jack Conan and Jordan Larmour in place of Fergus McFadden.
