Henshaw and Marmion both start for Connacht
Coach Pat Lam has made three changes to Connacht’s starting 15 for their clash with Edinburgh Rugby in the PRO12.
Ireland international Robbie Henshaw takes the number 13 shirt, with Darragh Leader moving to fullback. Meanwhile fellow Ireland player Kieran Marmion will partner Jack Carty at halfback.
The third change is upfront, where Willie Faloon comes in at openside flanker to join captain John Muldoon and Eoin McKeon.
Otherwise the squad is unchanged from the side that started the PRO12 campaign with a 16-11 win over Newport Gwent Dragons.
The match is in BT Murrayfield on Friday night - kick-off 7.35pm.
