Scarlets and Connacht meet at Parc Y Scarlets in their final match in the Pro 14. Both teams sit in 2nd and 3rd positions respectively, but in no danger of switching positions. However if Cardiff Blues win and Scarlets suffer defeat, they will be replaced in 3rd position, which could be significant in terms of European rugby next season. Scarlets have a good recent record, winning five of the last six matches against Connacht

Head Coach Andy Friend says: “This is our final chance to give game-time to some players before our Challenge Cup and Rainbow Cup outings so I know the whole squad will be eager to impress. Thankfully our injury situation is relatively good heading into those competitions which has allowed us to try out a few new combinations.

We’d love to travel to Leicester on Saturday week with a win behind us and it’s also important to finish any league campaign on a high, so we’re looking forward to travelling to Wales and see how they perform.”
