OSPREYS
- In Round 14 the Ospreys let slip a 3-0 lead at half-time and conceded three penalties in the second-half to lose 9-3 to Glasgow.
- Ospreys loose-head prop Gareth Thomas suffered an ankle ligament injury against Glasgow and he will not be fit to face Ulster.

- Ulster lock Alan O'Connor made 22 tackles against Benetton in Round 14 and he will be available to face Ospreys at Liberty Stadium.
THE PREDICTION
Both teams require a win to boost their play-off chances in their respective conferences. Home advantage will tip the balance in favour of Ospreys and Ulster have struggled away with only two wins from seven games. Expect Ospreys to just edge past Ulster and clinch an eighth win.
