ULSTER HEAD COACH Jono Gibbes has named Tommy Bowe and Paul Marshall on the bench for what could be a final home match for their native province.
Glasgow visit Belfast for tomorrow’s rescheduled Pro14 fixture (kick-off 18.05, BBC) and, despite Dave Rennie’s side already being securely fastened in a home semi-final place, the Conference B leaders have sent a back-line brimming with talent.
Finn Russell returns to out-half with Lelia Masaga, Huw Jones, Tommy Seymour and Stuart Hogg all offering potent threats in the back-line.
Ulster are still chasing a possible play-off spot, but will need to take full advantage of this game in hand to keep hope of catching Edinburgh alive. Gibbes has named Iain Henderson captain with Rory Best among the replacements
Man of the match last week, Matty Rea misses out through injury, so Nick Timoney slots in at blindside with Jean Deysel and Sean Reidy completing the back row.
