Head coach Tom Tierney has made a one change to the Ireland women’s team that beat England which will face Wales in the RBS Women's Six Nations on Sunday, with Jackie Sheils coming in at centre for Katie Fitzhenry.
Fitzhenry has been ruled out due to an ankle injury picked up in training at the weekend. Sheils replaces the centre with Aoife Doyle named on the bench for the clash in Swansea (KO 12pm).
Tierney said: "It was great to get a win against England a fortnight ago, and has left us in a good position for the final two rounds of the championship, but we are always looking for improvements.
"We are not underestimating Wales, they are a strong side and we have no doubt they will bring their all with them for the home crowd. If we do the small things right we will be in good shape.”
Ireland Women (v England): N Briggs, H Tyrrell, J Murphy, J Shiels, A Miller, N Stapleton, L Muldoon; R O'Reilly, G Bourke, A Egan, S Spence, M L Reilly, P Fitzpatrick, C Molloy, H O'Brien.
Replacements: S Mimnagh, F Hayes, F O'Brien, O Fitzsimons, K Norris, T Rosser, S Naoupu, A Doyle.
