All is not well at Ulster, with Les Kiss facing the most sustained period of scrutiny on his role since he left the Irish set-up to take the job. Critical to alleviating that pressure will be the performances against Harlequins over the next couple of weekends in the Champions Cup. Here are the details on where to watch Ulster vs Harlequins this weekend.
Where to watch Ulster vs Harlequins?
The game takes place at the Stoop this Sunday at 1pm. It is live on BT Sport 2, with coverage beginning at 12.30pm.
Where are both sides in the pool?
Ulster are struggling in Pool 1, lying third with four points having suffered a heavy defeat away to La Rochelle on Matchday 2. Harlequins' plight is worse: they prop up the pool with a single point, leaving La Rochelle top with ten points and Wasps second with five points.
Are either side in form?
Since the 41-17 hammering to La Rochelle on Matchday 2, Ulster's form has stuttered, winning two, drawn once and losing once. Off the field, however, better news has abounded: the province have completed the signing of Jordi Murphy from Leinster, and Luke Marshall, Rob Herring and Kieran Treadwell have all signed contracts to keep them at the club until 2021.
Harlequins, meanwhile, are floating in mid-table obscurity in the Aviva Premiership, lying seventh with 24 points.
They did, however, shock Saracens 20-19 in the same competition last weekend, giving them a timely fillip ahead of Ulster's visit.
A reminder on where to watch Ulster vs Harlequins - it is on BT Sport 2 at 1pm, with coverage kicking off at 12.30pm.
Keep an eye on Balls over the weekend, we will be right across it all.
