Outside centre Keith Earls was recalled to the Ireland side for the Six Nations clash against France in Paris on Saturday after he missed last weekend's home defeat by Wales because his newborn daughter was taken ill.

Earls is the only change from the starting side who were sunk by a late Welsh penalty in their 23-21 loss in Dublin on Sunday.

Fergus McFadden, who came in for Earls against Wales, moves to the bench in place of David Kearney.

Replacements: 16-Sean Cronin, 17-Tom Court, 18-Donnacha Ryan, 19-Peter O'Mahoney, 20-Eoin Reddan, 21-Ronan O'Gara, 22-Fergus McFadden. – Reuters
