Cardiff – Merthyr team news

Cardiff entertain Merthyr in the Indigo Premiership at the Arms Park on Thursday (19:30)

This will be Cardiff’s last game of the season and they know that a bonus point win will secure the Premiership title. But the Blue & Blacks face one of the best sides in the league in Merthyr. They have hit form in recent weeks and will be looking to finish as high as possible in the table.

The Blue & Blacks will need to match the performances of the last few weeks, where they have seen two bonus point wins, if they are to gain the win they need.

A bumper crowd is expected at the Arms Park and Cardiff Rugby supporters are reminded that their season tickets allow them free entry to what should be a memorable match.
