Anscombe gives youth a chance for depleted Ulster

With a number of players on International duty, Ulster head coach Mark Anscombe has taken the opportunity to include some fresh faces in his provisional squad for Sunday's re-arranged RaboDirect PRO12 game against Zebre at the Stadio XXV Aprile (2pm).

Four contracted second rows are unavailable to the Northern Province so back rower Robbie Diack will cover lock.
