Stormers v Ulster date, kick-off time, TV and stream information, team news, betting odds and more

The semi-final stage of the URC take centre stage this weekend with South African opposition awaiting the two remaining Irish provinces.

While Leinster host the Bulls on Friday night, Ulster have to make the arduous trek to the southern hemisphere to take on Stormers.

They booked their spot in the final four by comprehensively outplaying Munster last time out so while they'll be on the road, they'll surely be confident enough of pulling out a win.

Here's everything you need to know about the all-or-nothing fixture:

When is it on and what Irish time will kick-off be at?

The match will be played on Saturday June 11 with it set to get underway at 2 pm Irish time.

What Irish TV channel is it on and can I stream it?

It'll be shown on RTE Two with coverage starting off at 1:30. Premier Sports 2 will also have it from 1:15.

So the RTE Player is available to anyone who wants to tune in.

What are the teams?

Neither Dan McFarland nor John Dobson have named their starting XV as of yet.

What are the odds?

The home side are slight favourites at 8/11 while Ulster are 11/10.

The handicap is only +/-1 while the draw is priced at 16/1.

Dan McFarland: “Our goal at the start of the season was to go and win the URC and Heineken Cup. Obviously we were knocked out of the Heineken Cup, so our sole focus now is on the URC.

“I do believe we can go on and win it but nobody has said ‘let’s go on and win this thing’. Next week isn’t a final so we’ll just take it as it comes.”
