Given their strength in depth – and the fact they supply the bulk of the Ireland team – it’s remarkable that Leinster haven’t won the Champions Cup since 2018. There’s no question they have the potential to go deep this year, however, especially now that All Blacks star Jordie Barrett has joined their ranks. He starts his second game at full-back, and he’s in for a busy afternoon against a team who – like Leinster – won their opening match of the tournament.
