Ulster will be looking to heap Heineken Cup woe on Stade Francais when the two sides meet at Stade Jean-Bouin in Paris this weekend.

The Pool 4 clash is a dead-rubber with neither side able to qualify for this season's quarter-finals and as a result coaches Ewen McKenzie and Matt Williams are set to rotate their options.

Lionel Beauxis lines up at fly-half for Stade in the absence of the rested Juan Martin Hernandez and partners scrum-half Noel Oelschig. Elsewhere, Mark Gasnier and Mathieu Bastareaud line up in the centres with Julien Arias and Djibril Camara featuring on the wings.

Up front Laurent Sempere will start at hooker with regular No.2 Dimitri Szarzewski named amongst the replacements. The backrow features Pierre Rabadan, Mauro Bergamasco, and Simon Taylor with club skipper Sergio Parisse another to start on the bench.

Ulster, who will be looking to avenge their 26-10 home defeat to the French side, have rested six top players with Darren Cave, Rory Best, Paddy Wallace, Ian Humphreys, Justin Fitzpatrick and Stephen Ferris all left out.

Coach Matt Williams may give Ian Whitten and Willie Faloon an opportunity with Stuart Philpot, Declan Fitzpatrick, Niall O'Connor and Rob Dewey also returning to the squad. Former Ireland Under-21 captain David Pollock is in line to lead the side with Best sitting out the trip to Paris.

Williams admits to facing a selection dilemma ahead of the final pool game. "It was a hard one. There are a lot of guys in the squad who are putting their hands up week after week, and saying they are ready and want to be given a chance. Take Chris Henry, he has been asking me for his chance to start and against Quins he got it, and played tremendously.

"Players like Ian Whitten and Willie Faloon are saying to me they want to have a go. They have really fought hard for their chance to start, and Saturday's match may just be that chance. We will look at things over the next few training days and then make our final decision."
