Neil Jenkins continues in the vital fly-half role for Celtic Warriors when they take on Leinster in the Celtic League.
He kicked 24 points as the Warriors opened their bid for silverware with a 49-12 win over the Borders last Friday night.
Kevin Morgan, a member of the World Cup squad, has been given specific permission to play, so as to get important match practice.
Leinster make five changes from the side beaten by Munster in last Friday’s Celtic League opener.
In the forwards division Emmet Byrne (elbow) and Gavin Hickie (foot) are both rested as a precautionary measure.
Aidan McCullen (calf strain) is replaced by Niall Breslin, while Niall Treston replaces Byrne and David Blaney takes Hickie’s place in the front row.
Wing forward Keith Gleeson hands over the captaincy to Leo Cullen, with Shane Jennings coming on the open side in Gleeson’s stead.
The other change is in the backs with John McWeeney coming in for Gordon D’Arcy.
