Expect a real edge to Friday evening's crunch quarter-final clash between Irish opponents Ulster and Connacht.

Connacht have heaped more pressure on themselves as they head to the capital for Saturday's final festive PRO14 interprovincial after recording losses to both Munster and Ulster this Christmas.

"Disappointed men and some tears" was the natural response in the immediate aftermath of Connacht's 21-13 loss to Ulster in this season's Guinness PRO14 quarter-final, but the club can reflect on more positives, none more so than achieving its primary aim of qualifying for Champions Cup rugby for only the second time on merit.
