\nPienaar starts against Montpellier
\nUlster scrumhalf, Ruan Pienaar, will make his first start of the season for Ulster in tomorrow\u2019s Heineken Cup Pool 5 game against Montpellier at Stade Yves du Manoir (kick off 15:40 GMT).<\/p>\n
Pienaar\u2019s inclusion is one of two personnel changes to the side that beat Leicester Tigers at Ravenhill last Friday night. <\/p>\n
Man-of-the-match from the Tigers game, Roger Wilson, moves from blindside flanker to Number 8 as Nick Williams misses the game with a calf injury. Robbie Diack is promoted from the bench to start at 6.<\/p>\n
All Black prop, John Afoa, is named as a substitute and is in line to make his first appearance of the season for Ulster having recovered from the calf injury that has kept him out since the summer.<\/p>\n
