Having already passed one Six Nations „decider“ with flying colours, Ireland are braced for another serious test of their championship credentials as they face Scotland in what could well be a classic encounter at Murrayfield.
Gregor Townsend’s men entered the weekend as Ireland’s closest challengers by way of points difference, and as well as a first Triple Crown since 1990, a victory would earn Scotland a genuine shot at the championship, 24 years on from securing their last major honour – back when the Six Nations was the Five Nations.
Stuart Hogg, who’s experienced more than his fair share of highs and lows in this fixture, is set for his 100th appearance for Scotland, who have brought in No.8 Jack Dempsey for Hamish Watson and Jonny Gray for suspended lock Grant Gilchrist. Gray will line up alongside his brother Richie.
It could be a landmark appearance for Johnny Sexton too, with the Irish skipper on the verge of becoming his country’s all-time leading points scorer in the Six Nations.
Andy Farrell has made six changes to the side that beat Italy two weeks ago, with Garry Ringrose starting at outside centre and Tadhg Furlong coming into the front row. Conor Murray, Dan Sheehan and Peter O’Mahony are also named in the starting XV.
