Cardiff – Aberavon team news

Cardiff entertain Aberavon in the Indigo Premiership at the Arms Park on Saturday.

The Blue & Blacks and the Wizards haven’t met since March 2020 and Aberavon have only played three time in the league this season so far. Cardiff have had three games recently all of which have ended in a bonus point win.

Speaking ahead of the game Head Coach Steve Law said “we are looking forward to the game this weekend. Following a good performance against a much-improved Llanelli side we will be looking to carry that forward this week. A lot of people have been building this game up as the believe that we should both be in the mix come the end of the season. Even though Aberavon have only played three league games this year their games in the Challenge cup have shown how good a side they are and we know how big a challenge Saturday will be.

But we have trained well this week and there is some consistency in our selection again. But we know that on the field we will have to perform well if we want to get anything out of this game”
