Both sides are hoping to bounce back from disappointments in the recently-ended Six Nations tournament.

Ireland finished four points short of victors England and second-placed France after falling to the latter in the final match of the tournament.

They are likely to bring in some fresh young talents during the Autumn Nations Cup, though Wales are sticking to experience for their tournament.

Alun Wyn Jones will make his 150th appearance for the Welsh side this week as they seek to put wins on the board in a lacklustre 2020.

Wales only managed to beat Italy in the Six Nations, a result that is simply not good enough for expectant fans.
