Munster meanwhile will be hoping to maintain their strong record in Cork in the URC this evening
In the United Rugby Championship this evening, Leinster will extend their lead at the top if they beat Cardiff tomorrow in the RD.
Leinster are the URC's second-highest try-scorers, on 46, two behind second-placed Glasgow.
There are four Kildare players in the starting side, and five personnel changes from the win over Ospreys two weeks ago.
Luke McGrath captains the side from scrum-half with Ross Byrne at ten.
Charlie Tector and Hugh Cooney renew their centre partnership.
Eadestown's Jimmy O'Brien shifts from wing to full-back, with Tommy O'Brien at 14.
Naas' Andrew Osborne is on the left-wing.
Jack Boyle is joined in the front row by John McKee and Rabah Slimani.
Sallins' Diarmuid Mangan partners Brian Deeny in the second row, with Donadea's Will Connors, Max Deegan and Alex Soroka in the back row.
Munster meanwhile will be hoping to maintain their strong record in Cork in the URC this evening.
Munster have won their last 10 league games at Virgin Media Park, and they can move up to fourth in the table with a victory against Edinburgh.
