Rob Kearney is back for Leinster’s inter-provincial Guinness PRO12 derby clash with Ulster tomorrow.
He starts at full back, having missed the Champions Cup defeats to Wasps and Bath with a hamstring injury.
Zane Kirchner also comes into the team, as one of eight changes to the side that lost to Bath last weekend.
The South African starts on the right wing, with Luke Fitzgerald on the left wing.
Ben Te’o has a new midfield partner, with Ian Madigan alongside him in the centre.
Luke McGrath comes into the half back line, where he will start beside Johnny Sexton.
There are also four changes to Leinster's pack, with Jack McGrath and Tadhg Furlong coming into the front row alongside Sean Cronin.
Mike McCarthy will partner Devin Toner in the second row.
While Josh van der Flier is promoted from the bench to start in the back row, replacing Jordi Murphy.
He will be in the back row alongside Rhys Ruddock and skipper Jamie Heaslip.
The game takes place at the RDS on Friday evening, with kick off at 7.35pm.
