Scarlets head coach Dwayne Peel hopes fly-half Sam Costelow will be fit for Friday’s Challenge Cup quarter-final against Clermont Auvergne in Llanelli.
Costelow left the field after injuring a leg in the 19-7 win at Parc y Scarlets against Brive on Friday.
It could be a blow for Scarlets with the 22-year-old enjoying an impactful season which led to his first Wales cap against New Zealand last November.
“He’s not too bad, he is up and about, I am sure he will be fine,” Peel said.
Costelow was replaced by Rhys Patchell against Brive, with fellow Wales internationals Ken Owens and Wyn Jones also returning to boost the side after the 2023 Six Nations.
Scarlets welcome French opposition for the second week running after Clermont Auvergne’s 33-26 win at Bristol.
This will be the eighth time the two sides have met, the fourth in Llanelli.
The French Top 14 outfit had been in the Champions Cup, but dropped down into the lower tier competition after only winning one of their group games.
