Brian O'Driscoll is highly unlikely to play any part in this weekend's Magners League trip to Glasgow. The Leinster management are currently awaiting the results of a scan on his knee injury but do not expect the centre to be fit.

O'Driscoll limped out of Leinster's thrilling Heineken Cup win over Wasps at half-time having damaged his right knee. But the injury is not seen as long-term and O'Driscoll should be available for the entire autumn international series.

Ireland coach Declan Kidney is due to name his squad for the tests against New Zealand, Argentina and Canada later this week. And while O'Driscoll is certain to be among the former Munster coach's selection, his provincial teammate Leo Cullen will miss out after suffering a fractured collarbone at the RDS.
