ULSTER ARE GETTING set for their biggest home clash of the season [or perhaps even their history] as they welcome Saracens to the newly refurbished Ravenhill on Saturday in the Heineken Cup quarter-finals.
With the capacity now up to 16,000, the atmosphere is likely to be superb when the Premiership leaders arrive with the intention of ending the northern province’s European dreams for the second season in-a-row.
Ulster CEO Shane Logan led a tour of the facilities at Ravenhill today, and here’s how it’s looking ahead of what should be a magnificent night of rugby this weekend.
This place will be packed to the rafters on Saturday evening.

The finishing touches are still being applied elsewhere.
