Ulster and Munster's quarter-final showdown will kick-off the United Rugby Championship play-off phase.
Munster’s 35-25 defeat to a weakened Leinster side in the final round of the United Rugby Championship sees them fail to earn a home quarter-final.
The Limerick outfit needed two points to guarantee a home quarter-final but they faltered against a spirited and incredibly well-drilled team.
An understrength Leinster side rose to the occasion to win 35-25 at the Aviva Stadium and deny Munster a home quarter-final in the United Rugby Championship.
The Sharks' loss to Ulster in Belfast has opened the door for a handful of teams to still grab the three home quarter-final slots behind United Rugby Champions (URC) log leaders Leinster.
The Sharks showed they could live without their crack Springbok midfielder Lukhanyo Am, but their coach Sean Everitt said they were chuffed to have him back.
The Sharks have locked in Springbok captain Siya Kolisi on a long-term contract until 2027.
Iain Henderson and Stuart McCloskey have been named in the Ulster side to face Cell C Sharks in the final round of the URC regular season tomorrow evening.
