Scarlets v Ulster Live: Kick-off time, team news and score updates from URC clash

Scarlets play host to Ulster this afternoon in the second round of the United Rugby Championship (1pm).

Dwayne Peel's men kicked off the season with a dramatic 23-23 draw with rivals Ospreys at Parc y Scarlets last weekend.

The head coach has made three injury-enforced changes to his starting XV from that clash for the visit of the Irish province.

Johnny McNicholl, Tom Rogers and Tomás Lezana are the men to miss out after picking up injuries in last Saturday's game, with Ioan Nicholas, Corey Baldwin and Josh Macleod brought in to the fray.

The visitors, fresh from their win over Connacht last time out, will provide the west Walians with a stern test this afternoon.
