Scarlets huge test as Connacht bid to extend record league run

RABO DIRECT PRO12:

Pat Lam’s unchanged side will face a Scarlets outfit that has been bolstered by the return of their internationals for this crunch clash, as both sides seek a top-six place to guarantee Heineken Cup qualification.

The odds, as always, favour Simon Easterby’s side. Having targeted a semi-final, the Scarlets’ loss to Glasgow last weekend has sharpened their focus. Internationals Ken Owens, Rhodri Jones and Jake Ball return to the pack, while Rhys Priestland, Liam Williams and Jonathan Davies, who captains the side, adds considerable experience in the backline.
