Division 1A leaders Old Belvedere travel to the Aviva Stadium looking to make it three wins from three against a Lansdowne side still searching for their first victory. Belvo arrive following a high scoring win over Ballynahinch, while Lansdowne face their third consecutive Dublin derby after defeats to St Mary's College and UCD. The hosts can take confidence from their 41-34 victory in the corresponding fixture back in February.

Second placed UCD also defend their unbeaten start when they visit fourth placed Clontarf at Castle Avenue. The students impressed against Lansdowne last weekend, while Clontarf will be eager to respond following defeat to St Mary's. Tarf won 29-12 when the sides met at this venue last November, but UCD will be determined to reverse that result.

Terenure College welcome Old Wesley to Lakelands Park for their first AIL meeting since February 2013, when Terenure recorded a 43-14 victory in Division 2A. Wesley arrive buoyed by their dramatic win over Cork Constitution, while Terenure aim to bounce back from defeat to Young Munster.

Defending champions St Mary's College travel to Cork Constitution chasing a third consecutive victory after impressive wins over Lansdowne and Clontarf. Con have lost both opening fixtures and face another difficult assignment against a side that beat them 57-19 on Leeside last February.

Young Munster complete the top-flight programme by welcoming Ballynahinch to Tom Clifford Park. The Cookies impressed against Terenure last weekend and will fancy another strong showing, while bottom placed Ballynahinch are desperate to secure their first points.

Division 1B leaders Nenagh Ormond will aim to maintain their perfect start when Instonians visit New Ormond Park. Nenagh impressed against Naas last weekend and now renew acquaintances with winless Instonians for the first time in the AIL since November 2013, when they secured a 20-8 victory in Division 2B.

Second placed Blackrock College travel to fourth placed Naas in an intriguing Leinster derby. Rock are also unbeaten following a hard fought victory over UCC, while Naas seek a response to defeat against Nenagh. The hosts won 32-20 when the sides last met at this venue in November.

Dublin University and Highfield meet on Leeside after both recorded their opening victories last weekend. Trinity overcame Garryowen, while Highfield impressed away to Instonians. The Cork side won 21-17 when the teams met at this venue in January, suggesting another close encounter could be on the cards.

City of Armagh welcome UCC to the Palace Grounds, with both sides chasing their first victory. Armagh have endured two closely fought opening fixtures, while UCC will take encouragement from their competitive showing against Blackrock. Armagh won their last meeting 26-5 in January at this same venue.

MU Barnhall travel to Dooradoyle for a first ever AIL meeting with Garryowen. The newly promoted side secured their first Division 1B victory against City of Armagh last weekend and will look to build on that milestone against a Garryowen outfit seeking a response to defeat against Trinity.

Division 2A leaders Cashel welcome Galwegians to Spafield seeking a third successive bonus point victory. Cashel have impressed against UL Bohemian and Queen's University, while Galwegians remain winless. The hosts won 50-19 when the sides last met at Spafield in March 2019.

One of the division's standout encounters sees second-placed Galway Corinthians host third-placed Dungannon. Both have won their opening two fixtures, with Corinthians collecting maximum points and Dungannon also showing strong early form. Corinthians have won the visitors last two trips west and will hope to maintain that record.

Fourth placed Ballymena welcome fifth placed Queen's University to Eaton Park for an Ulster derby. Ballymena remain unbeaten, while Queen's will be determined to respond after losing to Cashel. The students won both meetings during the 2022/23 campaign, including a 26-12 success at Eaton Park.

Shannon host Wanderers looking to build on their first victory of the season against Galwegians. The Limerick side won the corresponding fixture 34-17 in January, while Wanderers arrive seeking their first win after two narrow defeats.

Greystones and UL Bohemian meet at Dr Hickey Park with both sides searching for their opening victory. Greystones produced a competitive performance against Corinthians last weekend and will hope to build on that display, having beaten Bohs 24-13 at this venue in March 2024.

Division 2B North leaders Clogher Valley face Banbridge in a first ever AIL meeting between the Ulster clubs. Clogher have collected maximum points from their opening two fixtures, while Banbridge will be determined to turn competitive performances against Malone and Skerries into a first victory.

Second placed Malone welcome fourth-placed Skerries in another fascinating unbeaten showdown. Both have collected ten points from ten, with Malone impressing away to Sligo and Skerries edging Banbridge last weekend. The Goats won 17-14 when the sides last met at Gibson Park in November.

Ballyclare also defend their perfect start when bottom-placed Malahide visit. The hosts won 31-27 in the corresponding fixture last January and will look to maintain their momentum against visitors chasing their first points.

Newcomers Enniskillen welcome Navan aiming for a remarkable third consecutive victory in their debut AIL campaign. The sides meet for the first time, with Navan determined to end their winless start.

Sligo and Rainey complete the programme at Hamilton Park, both searching for their first success. Sligo won 31-21 at this venue in March, while Rainey face non Ulster opposition for the first time this season after defeats to Enniskillen and Ballyclare.

Division 2B South leaders Clonmel travel to Enniscorthy looking to preserve their perfect record following bonus point victories over Monkstown and Dolphin. Enniscorthy remain without a win but can draw confidence from their 31-25 home victory over Clonmel last January.

Second placed Old Crescent travel to Dolphin for an all Munster encounter, with the Limerick side also chasing a third successive bonus point win. Crescent won 31-28 on their last AIL visit to Leeside in December 2022, while Dolphin aim to bounce back from defeat to Clonmel.

Third placed Midleton visit fourth placed Bective Rangers in another significant early season contest. Midleton are unbeaten following their impressive victory over Buccaneers, while Bective arrive buoyed by a high-scoring success against Bruff. The Dublin side won 22-7 when the teams met at Energia Park last October.

Thomond welcome Buccaneers in their first meeting since 2008, when Buccs recorded a 31-17 victory. Thomond will look to build on their high scoring win over Enniscorthy, while the visitors desperately seek their first victory.

Finally, Bruff travel to Sydney Parade to face Monkstown, with both sides eager to improve their early-season fortunes. Monkstown won 36-24 at home last March but have lost their opening two fixtures against Munster opposition. Bruff, meanwhile, will be determined to return to winning ways following last weekend's defeat to Bective.
