Interim head coach Cullie Tucker will hope to lead Connacht to their first URC win since he took charge when they take on Edinburgh in their final home game of a very disappointing season at Dexcom Stadium on Saturday night (7.35pm).

Five defeats and a Challenge Cup win over Cardiff has been the outcome so far since Tucker took over from Pete Wilkins. Two of the losses were by 43-40. Amazing for a team to score 40 points and not win. Remarkable to do it twice in three games. But in a way it sums up the season, a campaign where Connacht assembled their strongest squad ever and go into the penultimate round third from bottom.
