Leinster coach Michael Cheika has decided against making wholesale changes for tomorrow night's clash with Glasgow as the defending champions attempt to regain a foothold in the Magners League.

Of the side that blew away Wasps at the RDS last weekend, only CJ van der Linde and Bernard Jackman are rested with Cian Healy and John Fogarty coming into a revamped front row.

Devin Toner starts in the second row in place of the injured Leo Cullen while Brian O'Driscoll's knee problem affords Jonathan Sexton another opportunity to press his claims at outhalf with Felipe Contepomi moving out to the centre.

Girvan Dempsey remains a doubt due to illness but recognises the need to maintain the recent Heineken Cup form at the Firhill Arena.

"It's vital that we back up our performance on Friday night because our recent Magners League form hasn't been as good as we would have liked," explained the fullback.

"It's important that we park last weekend's result and focus on Glasgow. We will re focus for the next few games on the Magners League and I think that we've learned from past mistakes where we have failed to back up good victories with more good performances."

Connacht have made four changes for their meeting with Edinburgh with John Lyne, Sean Cronin and Colm Rigney coming into the backrow while Mel Deane's recovery from a hamsting strain sees him start in the centre.
