Ulster A entertain Cornish Pirates in the British and Irish Cup Pool match this afternoon at Shaws Bridge. Kick off 5:00pm.
Both teams are tied at the top of Pool 5 having won three from four, the Pirates take top spot by virtue of their superior points difference of 46 points compared to Ulster A’s 9 points.
Ulster A have it in their own hands to win the Pool but to make sure they will have to record a win in this one and the next match, away to Scarlets PS, as the Pirates are likely to beat Hartpury in their last game.
The last time these teams met, back in October, the Pirates recorded a 23 – 14 win with the Pirates denying Ulster a losing bonus with the last kick of the game. How that match will reflect on this one for, as is customary at this level, there are substantial changes to both team.
The Pirates travel with only five starting players . . .
