Alun Wyn Jones favourite to start first test after sensational return to Lions squad


Alun Wyn Jones is being tipped to make a sensational return to the British and Irish Lions squad after seeing dramatic progress in his recovery from the dislocated shoulder that appeared to have ended his tour.

The Welshman sustained the injury six minutes into the opening match against Japan on June 26 but is now training with Wales and Warren Gatland will make a decision on Tuesday whether to summon him to South Africa.

Take a look at the full side below. Odds are correct as of 13 July, 10am.

FRONT-ROW:

  • 1. Wyn Jones (Wales) – 5/6
  • 2. Ken Owens (Wales) – 2/5
  • 3. Tadhg Furlong (Ireland) – 1/5
