It's their final Pro14 regular-season game.

Tullamore's Cormac Izuchukwu is set to make his first Ulster.

They host Zebre at the Kingspan Stadium in their final PRO14 regular-season game tomorrow.

The 21 year-old made the move north last May and after recovering from injury has been a prominent feature in their academy set up.

The 6ft 7inch lock previously played Sevens and narrowly missed out on a place in last season's U-20 Ireland Six Nations squad due to injury. 

 

 

Elsewhere,

Devin Toner win his 261st cap for Leinster tomorrow, equaling Gordon D’Arcy’s all-time record for the province. 

Toner has been named in the second row alongside Ross Molony for Friday’s home game against the Ospreys.

 

While,

Second-row Cian Hurley will make his Munster denut in tomorrow’s Pro14 meeting with Benetton at Thomond Park.

Johan Van Graan’s side are already guaranteed a place in next weekends Pro14 final against Leinster and will start with a relatively inexperienced side.

There are first Munster starts for Diarmuid Barron, Jake Flannery and Paddy Patterson.
