IAIN HENDERSON RETURNS to captain Ulster as one of three personnel changes made by Dan McFarland ahead of Friday night’s crucial Guinness Pro14 trip to Edinburgh [KO 7.35pm, BT].
Meanwhile, fellow Ireland international Jacob Stockdale starts at fullback as the northern province look to bounce back after last weekend’s 30-7 defeat to Glasgow Warriors.
Victory at Murrayfield would see Ulster secure a place in the play-offs.
Lock Henderson is a welcomed back, as is back row Nick Timoney, after both missing out last weekend. Academy winger Robert Baloucoune is also included.
Subsequently, Rob Lyttle moves to the left wing and Stockdale starts at fullback as Ulster look to get back to winning ways.
Meanwhile, Ross Kane and Peter Nelson have been recalled to the matchday squad, taking up positions on the bench.
