Just one change from the 23 selected for the cancelled last-16 tie against Toulon last weekend.

Leo Cullen has named the Leinster team to face Exeter in the quarter-final of the Heineken Champions Cup tomorrow at Sandy Park.

Johnny Sexton will again captain the side with only one change from the 23 selected for the cancelled last-16 tie against Toulon last weekend.

The backs stay the same with Hugo Keenan, Jordan Larmour and James Lowe selected by Cullen, with Robbie Henshaw and Rory O'Loughlin in the centre.

In the front row Cian Healy, Rónan Kelleher and Tadhg Furlong are again selected to start but there is one change in the second row with Scott Fardy partnering Devin Toner for the trip to Sandy Park.

Finally, in the back row it's once again a trio of Rhys Ruddock, Josh van der Flier and Jack Conan.
