They will have been disappointed to fall at the quarter-final stage, but their exit was no disgrace as they lost out narrowly to eventual winners South Africa in a pulsating match. While the French will be glad of home advantage, Ireland represent a stern test and France will be determined to take a step towards wrestling the title back by striking an early blow against their most dangerous rivals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maxime Lucu comes into the side in place of absent scrum-half Antoine Dupont who has withdrawn to conecentrate on Sevens ahead of his county\u00b4s home Olympics this summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Romain Ntamack reamians unavailable so Lucu will partner Bordeaux club-mate Matthieu Jalibert in the half-backs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yoram Moefana is preferred to Louis Bielle-Biarrey at wing, with Paul Gabrillagues and Paul Willemse named in the second row and Francois Cros replacing injured Anthony Jelonch at blindside flanker, in four further changes to the side that lost to eventual winners South Africa in the World Cup quarter-finals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>France:<\/strong> T Ramos; D Penaud, G Fickou, J Danty, Y Moefana; M Jalibert, M Lucu; C Baille, P Mauvaka, U Atonio; P Gabrillagues, P Willemse; F Cros, C Ollivon, G Alldritt (capt).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Replacements: J Marchand, R Wardi, D Aldegheri, R Taofifenua, C Woki, P Boudehent, N Le Garrec, L Bielle-Biarrey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ireland\">Ireland<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Ireland are reigning Six Nations Champions and are ranked number two in the world. They performed very well in the World Cup, however, as the number one ranked team in the world going into the tournament, going out in the quarter finals would have been a big disappointment. They lost out in a classic contest against the eventual runners-up New Zealand, ending a long unbeaten run. A trip to Paris is a tough ask for any side in the world, but Ireland will be determined to retain their title and will be looking to claim a win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Garry Ringrose will miss out because of a shoulder injury as Robbie Henshaw is drafted in at centre and Joe McCarthy starts at lock.McCarthy&#8217;s inclusion means James Ryan is on the bench. Ulster&#8217;s Iain Henderson has been left out of the matchday 23. Calvin Nash will start on the wing due to Mack Hansen&#8217;s absence through injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jack Crowley takes over from retired Johnny Sexton at fly-half. Peter O&#8217;Mahony will skipper the side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ireland:<\/strong> H Keenan; C Nash, R Henshaw, B Aki, J Lowe; J Crowley, J Gibson-Park; A Porter, D Sheehan, T Furlong; J McCarthy, T Beirne; P O&#8217;Mahony (capt), J van def Flier, C Doris.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Replacements: R Kelleher, C Healy, F Bealham, J Ryan, R Baird, J Conan, C Murray, C Frawley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Prediction\">Prediction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Expect a close match of high quality.
