Form Guide
Both teams are in mixed form heading into this weekend’s clash. Edinburgh survived a scare against bottom of the table Zebre. They have won three of the last five games to put them seventh in the table, two points behind Ulster and one behind Scottish rivals Glasgow. A win this weekend would guarantee a place in the knockout stages, and give them an opportunity of a home quarter final.
For Ulster, a victory this weekend is important for a number of reasons. Three straight defeats would be mentally very difficult for this young side, especially having been in such a strong position three weeks ago.
A win this weekend for Dan McFarland’s side will put them in contention for a home quarter final, but their own faith will not be in their hands. It’s not a time to panic, but a reminder of how quickly circumstances can change.
Team News
