Ulster v Cardiff Blues, Ravenhill, Friday April 6th, 7.35pm ko
Rory Best returns to captain Ulster as they take on Cardiff at Ravenhill on Friday night.
Ulster are looking for a seventh Pro 12 win on the bounce, and Les Kiss has also been able to name Andrew Trimble among the replacements, with the winger fit again after a hand injury kept him out of Ireland's final two Six Nations fixtures last month.
Paddy Jackson also returns to the starting XV at 10, and he is joined in the halfbacks by Ruan Pienaar.
