Simon Best returns to the Ulster side, having been released by the Irish management to play, while Roger Wilson returns in place of Ronan McCormack in the side to play Leinster.

The Ulster backline is already adopting a settled look about it as it is unchanged from last week.

The size of the task ahead of an inexperienced Leinster side is reflected in the fact that Ulster are unbeaten in any competitive match at Ravenhill in 21 matches since losing to a late Brendan Laney penalty for Edinburgh in September 2002 and Ulster have won their last three against fellow provinces.

Ulster:
15: Bryn Cunningham
14: Tommy Bowe
13: Jonny Bell
12: Paul Steinmetz
11: Andrew Maxwell
10: Paddy Wallace
9: Neil Doak
1: Simon Best
2: Paul Shields
3: Rod Moore
4: Matt Mustchin
5:Rowan Frost
6: Andy Ward (Captain)
7: Neil Best
8: Roger Wilson

Replacements:
16: Nigel Brady
17: Ronan McCormack
18: Matt McCullough
19: Campbell Feather
20: Kieran Campbell
21: Seamus Mallon
22: Scott Young
