Iain Henderson has recovered from injury to take his place in the Ulster team that will face Leicester Tigers at Welford Road in Saturday’s crucial Heineken Champions Cup Round 6 tie.
Henderson is the sole change to the starting XV that recorded a memorable win over Racing 92 at Kingspan Stadium last weekend, to leave Ulster’s quarter-final qualification destiny in their own hands.
Ulster team to play Leicester Tigers:
L Ludik; R Baloucoune, W Addison, S McCloskey, J Stockdale; B Burns, D Shanahan, E O’Sullivan, R Best (captain), M Moore, I Henderson, K Treadwell, S Reidy, J Murphy, M Coetzee.
Replacements (16-23): R Herring, A Warwick, R Kane, A O’Connor, N Timoney, J Cooney, M Lowry, D Cave
