Connacht haven’t changed their training roster or carried out any knee-jerk reaction in Christmas week to their shock 48-28 loss away to the Dragons at the weekend but captain Cian Prendergast said they are fired-up to deliver a performance when they take on Ulster in Galway on Saturday evening.

Temporary terracing has been installed behind both goals, bringing the capacity up to 6,000 for this game and that will also be in place next month when the new Clan Stand is opened for a capacity 12,000 crowd against Leinster on January 24.
