Alex Dombrandt returns to captain Harlequins as they put together to face Leinster within the Spherical of 16 of the Investec Champions Cup at Croke Park on Saturday.
Head coach Danny Wilson has made six adjustments to the beginning XV, together with a notable swap at fullback the place veteran Leigh Halfpenny replaces Rodrigo Isgro, who’s unavailable on account of concussion.
Halfpenny’s inclusion sees Tyrone Green transfer to the wing.
England blindside Chandler Cunningham-South shifts to lock, partnering Joe Launchbury within the second row, with Stephan Lewies dominated out by harm.
Ben Waghorn returns in midfield to companion Oscar Beard, whereas Luke Northmore is called among the many replacements. England star Marcus Smith begins at ten alongside Will Porter at scrumhalf.
In the pack, Dombrandt is restored at number eight, joined by Will Evans within the again row.
That is the primary aggressive assembly between Harlequins and Leinster in over a decade.
