Edinburgh coach Rob Moffat knows what to expect from Magner's League bedfellows Ulster when they meet in the Heineken Cup at Murrayfield on Saturday.

"It is a massive challenge. Since we beat them at Ravenhill, they have won against Connacht, Scarlets and against Bath in the Heineken Cup - they are on song just now," he said.

"I don't believe our recent record against Ulster will affect the outcome of Saturday's match. This is a different game and they are on form right now.

"We have to perform to the high standards that we have set. Everyone knows the importance of the game and it is all about regaining the consistency levels which helped us to finish second in the Magners League last season".

EDINBURGH (v Ulster):

15 Chris Paterson, 14 Mark Robertson, 13 Nick De Luca, 12 John Houston, 11 Tim Visser, 10 Phil Godman, 9 Mike Blair (capt), 8 Allister Hogg, 7 Roddy Grant, 6 Alan MacDonald, 5 Scott MacLeod, 4 Steve Turnbull, 3 Geoff Cross, 2 Ross Ford, 1 Kyle Traynor.

Replacements: 16 Andrew Kelly, 17 Allan Jacobsen, 18 David Young, 19 Craig Hamilton, 20 Scott Newlands, 21 Greig Laidlaw, 22 Ben Cairns, 23 Steve Jones.
