FORM GUIDE Ulster suffered a first defeat of their Guinness PRO12 campaign against Zebre in Parma last Saturday. Ulster’s only defeat in their last eleven PRO12 encounters in Belfast came against Leinster on 2nd May. Edinburgh drew 20-all at home to Scarlets last Friday, their first draw since Glasgow visited the home of Scottish Rugby on Boxing Day 2011. The Scotsmen have already beaten an Irish province on their own soil this season, lowering the colours of Munster in Limerick in Round 1. Edinburgh’s only victory over Ulster in their last seven meetings in all tournaments was 14-8 at BT Murrayfield in the PRO12 on 22nd March 2013. The Scotsmen have not won in Belfast since September 2009.
