Ok, so this may be the last season that the EDF Cup will be around but the Welsh clubs are taking it seriously because there is a lucrative cash prize at the end of it all...and all 4 regions need the cash.
Ospreys have announced that Henson, Nikki Walker and Jamie Nutbrown are all available for selection and my thinking is that they will also start the game.
A much needed dose of class is required in the team and hopefully these players, refreshed after injury (and a banning) can help spark the game a little.
Worcester got a bonus point win in their last EDF clash over London Irish so there can't be any complacency (unlike against the Quins) this time.
Neither team have confirmed their starting 15 yet, but Ospreys have announced an initial 23 man squad from which they will select.
</span>Ospreys:
Backs: Lee Byrne, Nikki Walker, Tommy Bowe, Shane Williams, Andrew Bishop, Gavin Henson, Ashley Beck, Dan Biggar, James Hook, Rhys Webb, Jamie Nutbrown.
Forwards: Duncan Jones, Adam Jones, Andrew Millward, Richard Hibbard, Huw Bennett, Lyndon Bateman, Alun Wyn Jones, Ian Gough, Ryan Jones, Tom Smith, Filo Tiatia, Steve Tandy.
Worcester:
TBC.
