Byrne: five tries in four Pro12 starts this season.

ADAM BYRNE WILL make his Champions Cup debut tomorrow evening when Leinster travel to take on Northampton Saints in Franklin’s Gardens [BT Sport, 7.45pm].

The Kildare winger has scored five tries in his four Pro12 starts this season, including a hat-trick against Zebre last month, and is rewarded with a place in Leo Cullen’s starting XV.

Cullen can also recall a host of Irish internationals following their involvement in the November Tests, with Rob Kearney starting at fullback, and Robbie Henshaw teaming up with Garry Ringrose in the centre.

Luke McGrath again joins Joey Carbery in the half-backs while in a much-changed pack, Devin Toner is set to win his 50th European cap when he lines out alongside Hayden Triggs in the second row.
