Connacht coach Michael Bradley has made three changes and one positional switch to his team ahead of the Magners League trip to the Newport Gwent Dragons on Friday night.
Stephen Knoop starts instead of Ray Hogan at tighthead prop, while captain John Fogarty comes in at hooker and replaces Adrian Flavin, who drops to the bench.
David Gannon is included in the second row, with Gavin Duffy putting on the number 15 shift in a direct swap from last week with Daniel Riordan, who starts at outside centre.
Michael Swift makes the replacements bench, as does Ronan Loughney who is looking for his first appearance of the season after being injured last August.
Connacht XV v Dragons:
G Duffy; D Yapp, D Riordan, J Hearty, C McPhillips; P Warwick, C Keane; B Wilkinson, J Fogarty (C), S Knoop; D Gannon, A Farley; J Muldoon, R Ofisa, C Rigney.
Replacements: A Flavin, R Loughney, M Swift, D McGowan, P Durcan, M McHugh, T Robinson.
