Winger Tommy Bowe is an injury concern for Ulster ahead of their Heineken Cup clash with London Irish at Ravenhill tonight.

Bowe will be assessed later today and will be replaced by Mark Bartholomeusz if he is unfit to play.

Both Ulster and London Irish have little chance of progressing to the quarter-finals of the competition, but the loser of tonight's game faces an early exit, barring a mathematical miracle.

Connacht, meanwhile, will be looking to keep their hopes of reaching the European Challenge quarter-finals alive when they travel to Montpellier tonight.

The Westerners have made four changes to the side that saw off the French team at the Sportsground last week, with Mark McHugh, John Fogarty, Ryan Studwick and Matt Lacey all in the starting 15.
