ULSTER HEAD COACH,Neil Doak has made three changes to the side that beat Edinburgh 30-0 last week for the visit of table-toppers Glasgow Warriors to Kingspan Stadium tomorrow evening.
With Paddy Jackson injured, Ian Humphreys is named at out-half and will make his 88th appearance for the province. The rest of the backline is unchanged, with Louis Ludik at fullback, Andrew Trimble on the right wing and Tommy Bowe on the left.
Man of the match from last week, Stuart McCloskey, continues at inside centre, alongside Jared Payne with Paul Marshall partnering Humphreys in the halfbacks.
There are two changes in the pack. Andrew Warwick is selected at loosehead in place of Ruaidhri Murphy. Ulster captain, Rory Best, maintains his place at hooker with Wiehahn Herbst retained at tighthead.
