Ulster names Celtic Cup side

Former All Black Paul Steinmetz and Ireland World Cup late replacement Tyrone Howe have been included in Ulster's side for the Celtic Cup semi-final with Glasgow in Hughenden on Friday night (7.30pm).

There is a doubt about second row Matt Mustchin in a pack that is the same as that which went under to Connacht in the Celtic League last week. Rowan Frost will play, if needed.

World Cup squad members tight head Simon Best and scrum half Neill Doak are both on the bench and second row Gary Longwell is the 23rd man in case cover is required for Frost on the bench.

Ulster (v Glasgow): B Cunningham; J Topping, R Constable, P Steinmetz, T Howe; A Larkin, K Campbell; B Young, M Sexton, R Moore, M Mustchin, M McCullough, A Ward (Capt), N Best, T McWhirter. Replacements: P Shields, S Best, R Frost, R Wilson, N Doak, S Stewart, S Young.
