Ulster Rugby’s only defeat in their last eight Guinness PRO14 matches was 23-27 to Zebre in Parma in round 5. The Ulstermen have not been defeated at Kingspan Stadium in the Championship since a 14-15 reversal to Munster exactly a year ago. Leinster’s only defeat in any competition this season was 19-38 to Cheetahs in Bloemfontein in round 4 of the Guinness PRO14. The Leinstermen have beaten just two fellow Irish provinces in their own back yards since 2014: at Munster in December 2015 and at Connacht last April. The last eight meetings between the two provinces have all been won by the home side on the day, whilst Leinster’s most recent success in Belfast was 22-20 in May 2014. CURRENT FORM
