MATCH PREVIEW
Ulster Rugby’s solitary defeat in their last seven Guinness PRO12 matches was to Leinster at the
RDS Arena in last season’s semi-final.
The last time the Ulstermen started a PRO12 campaign with three straight victories was in season
2012/13, where they did not lose their first match until round 12.
Ulster have lost just once at Kingspan Stadium since early January: 20-21 to Scarlets on 21
February.
Scarlets have won only one of their last six Guinness PRO12 fixtures: over Newport Gwent Dragons
on “Judgement Day” in April.
Scarlets only victory in their last twelve visits to an Irish province in any tournament was in Belfast in
February.
Scarlets won both matches against Ulster in the Guinness PRO12 last season but have never won
three in a row against the Irish province.
