    Leinster v Stormers LIVE score updates, team news, stream and more for URC opener

    The new season of the United Rugby Championship kicks off this evening as Leinster head to Cape Town to take on Stormers this evening.

    Tonight’s game kicks-off at 6pm Irish time and can be watched live on both TG4 and Premier Sports 1.

    Leinster will be hoping to get their season off and running with a win tonight as they look to defend their URC title.

    The trophy drought is over, but as always with Leinster, they will be judged on their performances in Europe.

    Still, strong URC form will only help them as the season progresses, and a win today in Cape Town would be the perfect way to start the new season.

    Coach Leo Cullen has named a strong side with no shortage of International caps at his disposal.

    Stormers have been a thorn in the side of the blues on occasion, and they will also be keen to lay down a marker.

    15. Jimmy O’Brien, 14. Tommy O’Brien, 13. Robbie Henshaw, 12. Ciarán Frawley, 11. Jordan Larmour, 10. Sam Prendergast, 9. Luke McGrath (capt), 1. Jack Boyle, 2. Gus McCarthy, 3. Rabah Slimani, 4. Diarmuid Mangan, 5. Brian Deeny, 6. Ryan Baird, 7. Scott Penny, 8. James Culhane
