What time and TV channel is Stormers v Ulster on today in the URC semi-finals?

Ulster are seeking to cap off a fine season by booking their place in the inaugural United Rugby Championship final.

Although they have flattered to deceive at times, Dan McFarland's young guns have played some free-flowing rugby throughout the season, none more so than last week when they walloped Munster.

Here's everything you need to know about today's all-or-nothing fixture as they hope to come away with a win from Cape Town stadium:

What time is kick-off later on today?

It will 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 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.

Quotes corner

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.”
