Ireland are back in Six Nations action tonight, facing Wales at the Aviva Stadium.

Ireland are looking for a third win on the spin after victories over Italy and England, and now welcome Wales to Dublin.

Andy Farrell's side currently sit third in the Six Nations table and will be confident against a Wales side they have beaten eight times in their last nine meetings.

Farrell has opted to freshen up his team with Jacob Stockdale, Nick Timoney, Jamison Gibson-Park, Robert Baloucoune and Jack Crowley coming into the starting XV.

Wales, meanwhile, have just one point to their name after heavy defeats by England and France.

They came close to ending their 14-match losing run in the Six Nations last time out as they led for 75 minutes against Scotland until a Finn Russell-inspired comeback denied them victory.

Injured pair Taine Plumtree and Sam Costelow make way for James Botham and Ellis Mee in the starting XV as Steve Tandy has also been forced to make changes to his side.
