Stockdale, McCloskey and Murphy start for Ulster

Billy Burns, Louis Ludik and Alan O’Connor are included in the Ulster team for tonight’s PRO14 against first-time PRO14 semi-finalists Edinburgh.

Burns replaces Ian Madigan, who started against his former province Leinster last weekend, while Ludik is on the wing in place of Matt Faddes and in the only change to the pack, Alan O’Connor comes into the second row.
