Ulster stand in captain Chris Henry has been named in Neil Doak's 27 man squad for their vital British and Irish Cup clash, against English National Championship side London Welsh, at Ravenhill on Friday night (7.30pm).
"London Welsh are the Pool leaders; they have taken maximum points from all three games. We always knew this would be a key game for us, we know how good they are, but we also know what we have to do to win," Doak said.
"Friday will be a massive opportunity for us, we have all worked hard to make Ravenhill a fortress again, and need our supporters to get behind us as much as possible. We simply have to make our home advantage count.
"We will have to be on our guard, as the results to date show, London Welsh are a quality side and can score tries from anywhere. We must have solid set pieces, win good quality ball for our backs, and go out and play a bit of rugby."
The starting 22 will be announced at noon on Thursday.
