France coach Fabien Galthie made two changes from the team who beat Italy for their Six Nations clash against Ireland at the Aviva stadium on Sunday. Anthony Jelonch comes in for Dylan Cretin in the back row and Damian Penaud starts instead of Teddy Thomas on the wing. France beat Ireland in their last encounter in last year’s Six Nations, but they have not won in Dublin since an international test in 2011. Les Bleus beat Italy 50-10 in their championship opener in Rome last weekend while Ireland lost 21-16 away to Wales. Replacements: Pierre Bourgarit, Hassane Kolingar, Uini Atonio, Romain Taofifenua, Dylan Cretin, Baptiste Serin, Anthony Boutier, Teddy Thomas
