The Leinster team to face London Irish in Saturday's Heineken Cup clash at Twickenham (kick-off 6pm) has been named.

Leo Cullen, who leads the team for the concluding Pool 6 encounter, will be making his 50th Leinster appearance in the Heineken Cup.

There are two changes to the side that defeated Brive 27-10 last weekend, with Bernard Jackman coming into the front-row alongside CJ van der Linde. Cian Healy completes the front-row.

Eoin Reddan partners Jonathan Sexton at half-back, with Gordon D'Arcy lining up alongside Brian O'Driscoll at centre. Sean O'Brien is one of four Ireland internationals on the replacements bench.
