We are back in Europe this weekend. Sadly, it's in the Challenge Cup and not the Champions,  but the way Quins are playing we can look forward to every game weith relish and even more so when Ulster ar the visitors.

With the Six Nations out of the way (thankfully for England) we have lots of players returning and starting the game (Sunday kick off 8.00 pm). That includes James Lang and Scott Steele return from Scotland duty for Quins.

Elia Elia, Will Collier, Santiago Garcia Botta, Nathan Earle, and Paul Lasike are also all back in the side which will be led by Tom Lawday.

Interesting starting pairing at lock with George Hammond making his first start alongside Hugh Tizard.

This is Ulster's first ever game in the European Challenge Cup, and the Irish side have won five of their previous seven meetings with Quins in European games.
