Scarlets started off their Guinness PRO12 campaign with three straight defeats but have now tallied victories in the last four rounds to rise from 10th to 6th place in the table.

Rhys Patchell insists Scarlets must not let complacency creep in despite beating rivals Cardiff Blues to record their fourth Guinness PRO12 win in a row.

Scarlets recorded a fourth Guinness PRO12 win in a row as they secured a 26-15 bonus-point victory over Cardiff Blues in an absorbing Welsh derby at BT Sport Cardiff Arms Park.

Cardiff Blues made a great start to their European Challenge Cup campaign beating Bristol and Pau to head the pool four table after two rounds.

They are the only Welsh club dining at Europe's top table this season and centre Scott Williams is determined Scarlets fly the flag successfully after being paired with defending champions Saracens in the pool stages.

Wayne Pivac was a relieved man after his side claimed a bonus-point 31-27 win over Dragons, but admitted they must resolve their first-half form if they are to threaten the Guinness PRO12 table.

Steff Evans notched a try-double as the Scarlets survived a scare at the hands of Newport Gwent Dragons to bring up a bonus-point victory and their third win on the bounce.

Newport Gwent Dragons' Head Coach, Kingsley Jones has made six personnel changes and two positional changes to the team that took on Glasgow Warriors last weekend at Rodney Parade.

Scarlets take on Newport Gwent Dragons on Saturday evening at Parc y Scarlets, in the first Welsh derby of the season as GUINNESS PRO12's first Big Weekend gets underway.

Scarlets were pointless after the first three rounds of the 2016/17 Guinness PRO12 campaign but have since reeled off successive victories, at home to Connacht and in Treviso.
