Williams has made six changes to the side that were defeated at the Arms Park in Cardiff over a week ago. The front row welcomes back Ulster Captain Rory Best who returns from injury to line up beside Bryan Young at loose head and Tom Court at tight head. Stephen Ferris returns to action with Roger Wilson dropping out of squad and Neil Best named as back row cover on the bench.
In the backs Williams has made three changes with the half back partnership of Isaac Boss and Paddy Wallace replacing Paul Marshall and Niall O'Connor who are both named as replacements. Bryn Cunningham returns to start at full back with young Mark McCrea named on the bench.
Rory Best said this of the fixture,"We have a point to prove after the away fixture in Cork and what better way to prove it by beating one of the best teams in Europe"
Williams is hoping that the Fortress Ravenhill mentality will return to Ravenhill for the final three fixtures which will prove crucial for his side's future in the Heineken Cup next season. Connacht are close behind Ulster with only four points separating the two provinces, and with Connacht having two home games left to play at the intimidating Sportsground, Ulster's qualification for Heineken Cup Rugby next season is by no means secured.
