    Connor Boyle gets over the ball at the breakdown to win Edinburgh a penalty that is kicked into the Leinster 22.

  3. Leinster 0-0 Edinburgh

    A predictor on the TV has just given Leinster a 94% chance of victory...

  6. Chances to impress

    Leinster v Edinburgh (18:00)

    Mike Blair names prop Jake Armstrong and flanker Kwagga van Niekerk on the Edinburgh bench - both players will make their debuts if they feature this evening, and have an opportunity to prove they can make an impact at this level.

  7. Injury boost for Edinburgh

    Leinster v Edinburgh (18:00)

    The visitors are bolstered in the backs by the return of James Lang and Ramiro Moyano from injury - Charlie Savala will be looking to pull the strings from fly-half.

    Youngsters Ben Muncaster and Connor Boyle have both captained Scotland U20s, and link-up in the back-row tonight.

  8. Last minute alteration

    Leinster make a late change to their line-up - Rhys Ruddock has pulled up with an injury, and is replaced by Martin Moloney.

  9. Internationals aplenty for the hosts

    Leinster v Edinburgh (18:00)

    Leinster are formidable opposition at any time, even with so many of their squad away with Ireland.

    Dave Kearney starts tonight for Leo Cullen's men, and is one of 12 full internationals in the Leinster 23. Remarkable strength in depth.
