With only one final warm-up game until the first test, the question a lot of people are asking is when will Owen Farrell play for the British & Irish Lions next?

Farrell arrived in Australia last week having been called up by father and head coach Andy Farrell as replacement to the injured Elliot Daly but has yet to feature in a matchday 23.

The 33-year-old will get his first chance to wear the red shirt this Saturday after being named among the replacements for the Lions against the AUNZ Invitational XV.

Who is playing for the Lions this weekend?

Farrell is on the bench with fellow Englishmen Marcus Smith and Alex Mitchell.

Tadhg Beirne will captain the side again in the absence of Maro Itoje. Jac Morgan is given a chance to claim his test spot at openside flanker. Henry Pollock starts at six while Ben Earl is at eight.

Scottish pairing Sione Tuipulotu and Huw Jones start at centre in their continued battle with Bundee Aki and Garry Ringrose for a test start.

England and Northampton Saints fly-half Fin Smith starts at 10 with Ben White getting his first start at nine.

If Farrell comes off the bench, it will be his first game since the beginning of May.

Playing for Racing 92 in the Challenge Cup semi-final against Lyon, he was forced off with concussion.

Farrell’s last test match was for England in 2023 when they beat Argentina in the World Cup third-place play-off.
