Johnny Sexton dons green for the 100th time this weekend as Ireland face Japan at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s a momentous day for captain Sexton who will be determined to make sure his Irish team make amends for a shock defeat to Japan in the 2019 Rugby World Cup, the last time the sides met.<\/p>\n
Japan \u2013 who were on home soil \u2013 triumphed 19-12 over Ireland and impressed throughout the tournament, though this is a more settled Ireland they have to contend with here.<\/p>\n
Coach Andy Farrell has gradually improved his team and has now won five matches in a row, including their last three encounters of the 2021 Six Nations against Italy, Scotland and England.<\/p>\n
