Cardiff travel to Dublin hoping to become the first side to beat Leinster in any competition this season (5.05pm kick-off).They will have to do so without their Wales contingent, who are in Wales camp ahead of next Saturday's Six Nations kick-off.It's a big day for scrum-half Lloyd Williams, who becomes the joint record appearance-holder for Cardiff alongside Taufa’ao Filise.
Williams, who made his first team debut against Leinster back in 2010, returns to the starting line-up as Cardiff make six changes from last week’s defeat in Brive.Joining Williams at half-back is Jarrod Evans, whose inclusion sees Rhys Priestland move to full back.
Rey Lee-Lo makes a timely return in midfield, while Owen Lane recovers from an ankle injury and is named on the wing.After being rested for the trip to Brive, captain Josh Turnbull occupies the blindside flank, pairing up with James Botham and James Ratti in the back row.
Brad Thyer is the only change made to the front five, replacing Rhys Carré, another member of Cardiff’s eight international call-ups.The game is being broadcast live on S4C and Viaplay (formerly Premier Sports), but if you can't get in front of the box stay tuned with our updates on our live blog below:Leinster: Chris Cosgrave; Max O'Reilly, Liam Turner, Ben Brownlee, Dave Kearney; Harry Byrne, Luke McGrath; Michael Milne, John McKee, Michael Ala'alatoa, Ross Molony, Brian Deeny, Rhys Ruddock (capt), Scott Penny, Max Deegan.Replacements: Tadgh McElroy, Marcus Hanan, Thomas Clarkson, James Culhane, Will Connors, Nick McCarthy, Charlie Tector, Aitzol King.Cardiff: Rhys Priestland; Owen Lane, Rey Lee-Lo, Ben Thomas, Jason Harries; Jarrod Evans, Lloyd Williams; Brad Thyer, Kirby Myhill, Keiron Assiratti, Lopeti Timani, Seb
