Almost 10,000 tickets have been sold for what promises to be an explosive all-Welsh encounter.
The Scarlets have begun the season in red-hot form with North crossing for four tries in three matches to end his 19-month regional try drought.
He was hampered by a groin problem at the tail end of last season but is feeling better than ever in the new campaign.
“Basically I run, I catch, I score. It’s as simple as that,” quipped North.
“It’s been a great start but it’s not just down to my own work. The forwards have put a good stall out – they’ve worked hard and stepped up to the plate.
“From a backs point of view we love and relish that, it allows us to release the quality we have.
“I’m busier, a bit heavier and hopefully a bit wiser. But the main thing is I’m just really enjoying my rugby again.
“It got to a stage last season where I had a few injuries and a groin niggle, which really put a downer on everything. You find it hard to get up for games.
“It was hampering me a bit because I wasn’t able to run as fast as I wanted to because of the pain I was getting. The day after a match was always a pain.
“But I’ve come back the body is feeling good. I feel fresh and I’m loving the game again.”
North’s impressive start to the season is a major boost ahead of the autumn internationals where Wales face Argentina, Samoa, New Zealand and Australia.
But he remains focussed on the Scarlets and their immediate encounter with fierce rivals the Ospreys.
“You can’t have Wales without form for your region,” added North.
“I’ll just try and keep this form going until selection time and hopefully I’ll get the nod then.
“But at the moment I’m just trying to keep tabs on what I’m doing now and keeping the wins coming for the Scarlets.
“The Ospreys haven’t had the best of starts. It’s been difficult for them and they will be hurt.
“But, when it comes to a local derby, anything is possible. I’m sure they will be looking at it that the Scarlets can be their first scalp to get them on their way again. I’ve no doubt they will step up for this game.
“But it will be hard for them to come here the way we are playing now. We are looking forward to getting a win hopefully.”
