The most recent meeting between the sides came in April at Aviva Stadium, where Leinster earned a decisive 41-17 victory. That result, combined with Leinster’s recent Champions Cup success, provides confidence heading into the rematch. 

Ulster, however, arrives with strong URC form and the statistical profile of a side capable of flipping the script. With familiarity high and margins thin, past results may offer context, but Ulster will not guarantee the outcome.

With recent European results, strong domestic form and familiar rivals on both sides, the stage is set for a tightly contested clash in Dublin.

Leinster And Ulster Bring Strong Champions Cup And Challenge Cup Form

Leinster enters the URC restart unbeaten in Champions Cup play, opening with a 45-28 win over Harlequins, before securing a 23-15 victory against Leicester. 

Ulster, competing in the Challenge Cup, delivered one of the most dominant results of the competition with a 61-7 win over Racing 92 in Round 1. The momentum slowed slightly in Round 2, as Ulster fell 29-26 to Cardiff on an 80th-minute penalty. 

But both sides return to league play encouraged by strong European performances.
