It is a good time to be a Leinster fan: few Irish sides have ever boasted their depth of talent, and they have started their Champions Cup campaign perfectly: two wins from two. The following fortnight brings their biggest European challenge of the season, however, back-to-back clashes with English champions Exeter Chiefs. This weekend's game is in England, so read on for details on where to watch Leinster vs Exeter Chiefs.

Where to watch Leinster vs Exeter Chiefs? 

The game kicks off at 5.30pm this Sunday. The game is live on BT Sport 2, with coverage beginning at 5.15pm. 

Where are both sides in the pool? 

Leinster and Exeter have set the pace in Pool 3. Both have two wins from two, with Leinster two points clear at the top by virtue of their bonus points against Montpellier and Glasgow.

Any injury worries for Leinster?

Encouragingly for Leinster, a number of their front-line players are working their way back to fitness. The exception is Joey Carbery, ruled out until the New Year with the fractured arm he sustained against Fiji. Other than that, however, it is all looking positive for Leinster.

Robbie Henshaw is expected to be fit for Sunday, and Garry Ringrose made his return from injury against Treviso last weekend. New signing James Lowe, man-of-the-match on his debut in the same game won't be involved against Chiefs, however. He has not been registered for the game by Leinster.

Are Chiefs in good form? 

Very much so. They put 42 points on Bath last weekend to extend their lead at the top of the Aviva Premiership table to eight points, with Gloucester their nearest challengers.

So, a reminder on where to watch Leinster vs Exeter Chiefs this weekend. It's live on Sunday evening from 5.15pm on BT Sport 2. Kick off is at 5.30pm.
