The Lions are without the majority of Leinster, Bath and Leicester Tigers players, who only joined up with the squad on Monday after the United Rugby Championship and Premiership finals, with Leinster hooker Ronan Kelleher the only player involved as he is named on the bench.

British and Irish Lions captain Maro Itoje has said they must use Friday's warm-up game against Argentina to "set the standard" ahead of their tour of Australia.

Maro Itoje will captain the British & Irish Lions for the first time after being selected to start the non-cap international against Argentina in Dublin on Friday.
