Aviva Stadium to host Ulster v La Rochelle behind closed doors

Ulster v La Rochelle will officially take place at the Aviva Stadium this afternoon.

The game was moved from Belfast's Kingspan Stadium due to the playing surface deemed unsafe, the game was moved.

But confirmation of where the game would take place has been late with the sides scrambling for a venue.

It was confirmed on Friday that the game would be moved to Dublin and just six hours before kick off it has now been confirmed.

BT Sport will still show the game love on BT Sport 1.

The game will be played behind closed doors with no access to supporters due to health and safety reasons and no sufficient time for match day planning.

Kick off is at 5.30 pm.
