Scarlets Boosted: Murray Fit for European Clash

Wales international Blair Murray has returned, offering a much-needed fitness lift for Scarlets as they prepare to resume their European Champions Cup campaign. Murray, who missed recent derby matches, has been declared fit to play against French side Pau this Saturday. This inclusion is critical for Scarlets' aspirations in the tournament.

Head coach Dwayne Peel has adjusted the lineup, bringing in Archie Hughes at scrum-half, with Dane Blacker on the bench. Notably, veteran Gareth Davies is not in the matchday squad. In other changes, Ryan Elias takes over at hooker, and 18-year-old Carwyn Leggatt-Jones could make his European debut.

Pau, despite a strong showing in their domestic league, are currently at the bottom of Pool 4 with two losses. Scarlets, also yet to secure a win, are narrowly behind in contention, having earned a bonus point against Bristol Bears. A bonus-point win against Pau is essential for Scarlets to guarantee progression to the knockout stages.
