Leinster have been boosted by the news that four key players will be available for selection for Saturday's Investec Champions Cup clash away to Bayonne (kick-off 3.15pm).
Garry Ringrose, RG Snyman, Tadhg Furlong and Jimmy O’Brien missed the last-gasp 25-24 win over La Rochelle, but the quartet have all resumed full training and will bolster head coach Leo Cullen’s options for the Pool 3 clash.
The fitness of Andrew Porter will continue to be monitored. The powerful prop picked up a calf injury in training last week and it was feared he could be a doubt for the Six Nations, but Leinster say his progress will be monitored during the week.
Ciarán Frawley is hoping to shake off a foot injury picked up in the win over La Rochelle, while prop Paddy McCarthy, replaced early in the second half last week has a "significant" foot injury with a decision on his participation to come later in the week.
Leinster are three points clear of Harlequins in Pool 3 and can secure at least a top-four seeding with victory in France.
