Ireland Rugby's Tadhg Furlong, Sean O'Brien, Peter O'Mahony and Conor Murray will start for the British and Irish Lions against top Super Rugby side Crusaders.

Jack McGrath, CJ Stander and Jonathan Sexton will be on the bench.

It comes three days after Warren Gatland's men lost 22-16 to Auckland Blues; the second of 10 tour matches in New Zealand.

Their opponents this weekend haven't lost a match this season.

The first test against the All Blacks is at Eden Park, Auckland on June 24th.
