It will be the squad's first home match after the death of centre Nevin Spence, his father Noel and brother Graham in a tragic farm accident earlier this month.

Best has not played since the Test match against New Zealand on 23 June.

Captain Johann Muller is included after overcoming injuries which kept him out of the squad that defeated Cardiff Blues 19 - 48 last week.

Stephen Ferris and Declan Fitzpatrick are among other players that make a return after missing out on the Cardiff match.

Ulster play Connacht at Ravenhill on Friday at 7.05pm.
