Leinster v Edinburgh - Preview

Edinburgh will move top of the United Rugby Championship if they beat Leinster - but Mike Blair's men face a tall order in Dublin.

The Scottish side have lost on their last 18 trips to the Irish capital to face Leinster and they have not won there since claiming a 27-13 success at Donnybrook in November 2005.

Leinster have lost only one of their last nine games against all Scottish opposition and just two of the last nine against Edinburgh, suffering away defeats in 2018 and 2019.

Edinburgh's unbeaten six-game URC run ended with a 23-19 reversal at the Ospreys last month while Leinster have lost two of their last three games in the competition, coming unstuck against Ulster and Cardiff.
