Farrell was brought in after Elliot Daly's injury and has not played for nine weeks due to a concussion. Tadhg Beirne will captain the side, with Pollock, Jac Morgan, and Ben Earl in the back row. The Lions have one final chance to impress before the Test series against the Wallabies on July 19.
Farrell mentioned the importance of being mentally prepared at this stage of the tour, with limited training opportunities.
