Leinster captain Johnny Sexton will make his seasonal debut for the province against Treviso in the European Champions Cup at the RDS tomorrow. 

Sexton was on Ireland duty for the World Cup in Japan and the out-half will surely been keen to hit the ground running in blue after the national disappointment.

One of the Irish stars of the future, Jordan Larmour, will make his first appearance of the season for the province. 

He starts at full-back, with Dave Kearney on the right wing and James Lowe on the left.

The centre partnership consists of Irish number 13 Garry Ringrose, who is partnered in midfield by Joe Tomane.

Scrum-half Luke McGrath played against Connacht and will be alongside Sexton. 

In the pack, Cian Healy and Andrew Porter are the props. Having scored two tries in a brilliant performance against Connacht, Ronan Kelleher will start at hooker. 

The second row has a familiar look, as Devin Toner and James Ryan go into battle. 

The back row is made up of Irish pair Rhys Ruddock and Josh van der Flier as flankers.

Caelan Doris is to make his European debut from number eight.

The match kicks off at 3.15pm tomorrow.

Leinster: Jordan Larmour, Dave Kearney, Garry Ringrose, Joe Tomane, James Lowe, Johnny Sexton, Luke McGrath, Cian Healy, Ronan Kelleher,  Andrew Porter, Devin Toner, James Ryan, Rhys Ruddock, Josh van der Flier, Caelan Doris.

Replacements: James Tracy, Peter Dooley, Michael Bent, Scott Fardy, Max Deegan, Jamison Gibson-Park, Ross Byrne, Rory O'Loughlin.
