Scarlets will take on ASM Clermont Auvergne in the quarter-finals of the EPCR Challenge Cup at Parc y Scarlets on Friday, April 7 with an 8pm kick-off. The match will be broadcast live on S4C and BT Sport.

The details have been officially confirmed by tournament organisers following the completion of the round of 16.

It will be the eighth meeting between the sides in European competition and the fourth in Llanelli.

“We have another big occasion with Clermont coming to town next week,” said head coach Dwayne Peel.

“It’s a big week, not just the match, but the build-up to it as well. We are all excited about it.”
