Meyer leads the Cheetahs out and we are moments away from kick off

Herring leads Ulster out

Come on, Ulster!

Another late change sees Peter Nelson come into the starting line up replacing Will Addison with Johnny McPhillips taking his place on the bench

The opening PRO14 clash of the weekend sees two sides with completely opposite starts of the season face off. The Cheetahs will look to change things around in their first home game of the season after losses to Munster, Ospreys and Glasgow. Meanwhile, Ulster is one of just two unbeaten sides left in the competition after wins over Scarlets, Edinburgh and Kings. Ulster have yet to lose to a South African PRO14 side and were the Cheetahs very first PRO14 opponents last season.

Stay with us for live updates as they happen.

Dan McFarland Pre-Match: “We need to respect the ball more this week by improving our ball retention. That will be critical against this Cheetahs side”

A late change to the starting XV for Ulster as Craig Gilroy has failed to overcome a rib injury, meaning Darren Cave13 starts at 13 and Henry Speight moves to the right wing. Peter Nelson comes into the matchday 23.
