Scarlets - Match Preview

The Warriors take on the Llanelli Scarlets on Friday night in one of the most eagerly anticipated Celtic League clashes. In the reverse fixture the Warriors were narrowly beaten, revenge will be on the agenda. For team news read on Warriors: Lyn Howells has named several players in 2 positions. In my opinion he will go for a centre pairing of JB and Shaun James, Sio at scrum half and Ceri Sweeney at fly half to give Neil a well deserved rest.
The bench has a strong look about it with Mefin Davies and Sidoli back from International duty and the impressive Ryan Jones and Richard Parks ready to burst into action.

Warriors: G Wyatt; D James, S James / J Bryant / D Bishop, R Mustoe; C Sweeney / N Jenkins, S Martens / P John; C Loader, M Rees, C Horsman, D Jones, N Kelly, M Molitika, R Bryan, C Harris.
Replacements: M Davies, M Jones, R Parks, R Jones, R Sidoli, AN Other, AN Other.

Scarlets: Scott Quinnell is out with a groin injury, Wales squad members Garan Evans, Barry Davies, Robin McBryde and Dwayne Peel are available for selection.

Scarlets (predicted): B Davies; R Rees, T Selley, M Watkins, R Johnson; G Bowen, D Peel; P John, R McBride, J Davies, V Cooper (capt), C Wyatt, E Lewis, G Williams, D Hodges
