Nick Williams, Louis Ludik and Stuart McCloskey are also expected to feature.

Updated at 13.04

CRAIG GILROY WILL become the youngest player ever to win 100 caps for Ulster, after being named in the side to face Benetton Treviso at Kingspan Stadium tomorrow night.

Gilroy has scored 25 tries in 99 appearances since making his debut against Cardiff in November 2010.

Nick Williams, Louis Ludik and Stuart McCloskey are also expected to feature after recovering from injury, with the former two picked at Number 8 and fullback respectively, while McCloskey is named among the replacements.

Partially owing to international commitments and players coming back from injury, Ulster have made five changes in total from the team that defeated Leicester Tigers at Kingspan Stadium three weeks ago.
