Keith Earls moves from the wing to outside centre alongside Paddy Wallace, who also makes his debut in the tournament.
Andrew Trimble is named on the left wing, while O'Gara and Isaac Boss start as the halfback partnership.
Sean Cronin makes the switch with Rory Best from the replacements to start at hooker, with Tony Buckley also making his first start at tight head prop.
There is a change in the back row as Donnacha Ryan starts at blind side in place of Stephen Ferris.
