Gareth Gravell’s side will be looking to emulate Bridgend’s performance at The Gnoll last week and finish the season in positive vein with an away win after three successive defeats.

Coach Patrick Horgan says, “To a man the squad was very disappointed by our showing last Saturday and we owe it to ourselves and our supporters to end with a flourish.

“It has been a demanding campaign that has tested everyone’s resolve with injuries and other distractions. But this is the last game of the season and the last chance to show what we can do as a group.

”After all our problems, it has been quite an achievement to finish a likely fifth but Neath’s standards are higher than that and, after a good rest the likes of which we haven’t had for a couple of years, we will look to improve again next year.”

Neath bring in Cameron Clement, Jamie Davies and Luke Ford behind the scrum while Ashleigh James, Tom Price and Adam Powell return up front with skipper Gareth Gravell on the bench.
