Ulster Rugby v Ospreys

Welcome back to Kingspan Stadium, home of Ulster Rugby, where today the Ulster squad welcome Ospreys for the opening round of the Guinness PRO14. Ulster will look to put their best foot forward and get the competitive season off to a winning start. Following on from a promising season under Head Coach Dan McFarland, the Ulstermen will look to put in a strong performance against the Ospreys, who will be disappointed to have missed out on the PRO14 play-offs last season and will undoubtedly look to lay down a marker this evening. With a number of Ulstermen representing the Province on the global stage, this fixture provides some of the squad’s rising stars an opportunity to stake their claim for greater involvement throughout the season. We’ve a brilliant team and a fantastic set of supporters, Friday night rugby in Kingspan Stadium is a celebration of that. Let’s make sure to provide a warm welcome for visiting fans and turn up the volume for the Ulster team when they take to the pitch. Finally, on behalf of Kingspan, I would like to wish the Ulster Rugby squad and management team the very best of luck. To Ulster’s committed fans, enjoy the game, lead the way and help ensure that this is an evening to remember at Kingspan Stadium.
