Leinster got the better of Ulster in their URC Interpro derby at the Aviva Stadium on Friday evening.

The visitors scored three first-half tries to go into the break with a 17-7 lead, but JJ Kenny, James Lowe, and Dan Sheehan crossed the line for a bonus-point 24-20 win.

Meanwhile, Connacht have made three changes for Saturday's meeting with the Dragons in Wales.

Cian Prendergast, Josh Ioane, and Bundee Aki all come into the side.

Denis Buckley has made the bench - if called upon, the prop will go joint-second in the province's all-time appearances list alongside Michael Swift.
