Ulster will look to make it five wins with this match out of six and continue to battle it out against first placed Leinster topping them at the league’s table with two points. However, Ulster is not expected to have it easy considering that Sharks also has a strong team. This season, Ulster now has four wins in their first five league matches with only loss coming against Leinster.
