Ireland Club XV Set For February 7 Clash At Energia Park

Irish Rugby and Scottish Rugby have confirmed the fixtures for the 2020 Club International Series.

The Ireland Club XV will travel to face Scotland Clubs at Myreside Stadium, Edinburgh on Friday, January 31, before returning to Energia Park on Friday, February 7 for the series decider at 5.45pm.

The series is decided by the aggregate score over the two games, so the fate of the Dalriada Cup will once again be decided at Energia Park. Ireland are current Dalriada Cup holders after a 19-all draw in Dublin and a 23-9 win in Galashiels in 2019.

Newly-installed Ireland Club XV head coach Gearoid Prendergast is predicting an exciting occasion for rugby fans, saying:

A high-tempo game is what we’re really going to look for. Let’s let these guys play. You’re talking about some high quality rugby players from around the four provinces. We’ll be encouraging these guys to express themselves.”

Tickets are now on sale via Ticketmaster for the Energia Park fixture. The prices are as follows:

Adult Stand- €10

Adult Terrace – €8

Children (Under-18) Terrace or Stand – €5
