Ebbw Vale – Cardiff team news

Cardiff travel to Ebbw Vale to play the Steelmen on Saturday for their last away game of the regular season.

Having already secured a semi-final berth the Blue & Blacks are looking to ensure a home tie. With Cardiff, Merthyr, Llandovery and Newport now all secure in the top four the battle is for a home semi-final draw. That will be given to the teams finishing in the top two. The league winner will play Newport at home while the other two teams will face each other with the venue to be decided.

Speaking ahead of the game Head Coach Steve Law said “going to Ebbw Vale is always a tough ask, they are one of the better sides in the league and are well coached and a close knit group of players. We will need to put in a performance and get out set piece right if we want to get anything out of the game.

We have a few new faces on the bench this week and we would like to thanks Cardiff Met and Cardiff University for the permits of these players”
