Steven Kitshoff will start for Ulster when he faces his former side the DHL Stormers in a Vodacom URC clash in Cape Town on Saturday.

Kitshoff has retained his place as Ulster’s starting loosehead prop from the side that narrowly lost to the Sharks in Durban last weekend.

It will be the former DHL Stormers captain’s first game back in Cape Town since moving to Belfast after the World Cup.

Kitshoff is joined in the scrum by Cape Town-raised veteran Ireland hooker Rob Herring, who is recalled to the starting lineup and captains the team after sitting out the game at Kings Park.

Ulster have made a handful of changes to their starting lineup, opting to rest Ireland lock Iain Henderson.

Harry Sheridan shifts from blindside flank to replace Henderson, while Matty Rea is called up into the back row.

There are a couple of further changes to the backline, as Michael Lowery moves from wing to fullback, while winger Robert Balocoune returns to the starting XV.
