Leinster prop Tadhg Furlong has been drafted into the Lions starting 15 for Saturday's warm-up game against Japan at Murrayfield.
Furlong had originally named on the bench but an injury to Scotland prop Zander Fagerson means there will be seven Ireland internationals in the team this weekend.
Warren Gatland was forced to make the change when Fagerson suffered a back spasm but it's not an injury that will keep the Glasgow Warrior's forward sidelined for the next game.
Gatland said: "It's a shame for Zander not to be able to run out at Murrayfield as a Lion, but he’s not quite 100%.
"He’ll get a chance to start in the next two games and stake a claim for a Test spot in South Africa, so it’s not worth the risk."
