The Sharks will host Ulster at Kings Park on Saturday and the Lions will welcome the Glasgow Warriors for two round six fixtures which were initially postponed due to illness within both foreign squads’ camps.

The rescheduled games will thus take place this weekend, while the rest of the URC teams are on a break as a result of the Six Nations third round being played.
