Forwards: Nigel Brady, Declan Fitzpatrick, Henry Head, Rowan Frost, Neil McMillan

Having trained well all summer flanker Neil McMillan will be hopeful of making his first appearance for Ulster since last season's August friendly against NEC Harlequins when he injured his knee. Jonny Bell is another player retunring to the team-sheet from injury.

Henry Head, the Ballymena second row has also been named in the replacements panel. He is not contracted with Ulster but has trained with the squad all summer and will be keen to prove himself if given an opportunity.
