Ulster have been absolutely fantastic in Europe this season, going unbeaten including good victories away in Clermont and Northampton. However in the URC they haven't won a match since their win in Dublin in late November. They have only played two matches since then but they were both losses away to Ospreys and Munster and they could've won both had they been more clinical.
The Scarlets have been fairly mediocre this season, as have most of the Welsh sides. They sit in mid table and have lost as many games as they've won in the URC. In Europe, their campaign was ravaged by Covid and they only got to play two of their games and they were trounced in both against Bordeaux-Begles and Bristol Bears.
