The Leinster duo will come up against Alex Dunbar and Huw Jones. The pair played together in Scotland's November internationals against Australia and Scotland. Jones made an incredible impression in the match against the Wallabies, scoring two tries and showing excellent footwork and pace.
With Jones only returning from injury it will be interesting to see whether he can have the same effect.
Nevertheless, it will be an intriguing battle. As Jones and his opposite number, Ringrose, possess such great attacking skills, either one of these men could first be on the score sheet in Murrayfield.
First Try Scorer:
Nevertheless, it has been no secret that these two would start for Scotland, so you can expect Joe Schmidt to have a plan in place to deal with the brothers.
Ireland's ensuing maul in the opposition 22 will be a key source of scores, as a result you could expect one of the Irish back-row players in CJ Stander, Sean O'Brien or Jamie Heaslip to either peel off the back of a maul or volunteer as a one-off runner to secure the game's first try.
Shirt Number - Ireland's first try
With this in mind, Ireland should beat Scotland in Murrayfield but the margin of that win could be lower than some of the more optimistic predictions - mostly due to the absence of Johnny Sexton.
