Ireland aim to build on last week's opening World Cup victory over Japan with another win at Franklin's Gardens in Northampton this afternoon. Manager Scott Bemand has made seven changes to the matchday squad for the game against Spain. The team selection reflects rotation and squad management with the final Pool C clash against New Zealand scheduled for next Sunday. The match offers an opportunity to consolidate table position while giving fringe players international game time. Spain will present a test that Ireland must overcome to maintain momentum and preserve player fitness ahead of the decisive Pool C fixture.
