URC Live: Zebre v Leinster, 12.30pm, RTÉ2

IT’S the opening weekend of the United Rugby Championship and there’s plenty of action on the box. First up today, Leinster, who topped the table last year, travel to Italy to face Zebre (kick-off 1pm). Then later on this evening you have a choice of channels as both TG4 and BBC2 are screening the interprovincial clash between Ulster and Connacht at Kingspan Stadium (kick-off 7.35pm).
