    Mike Blair might not be looking at the table, but pretty much everyone else is today.

    With Leinster not playing this weekend, Edinburgh have the chance to go top of the URC, and make a real statement moving forward.

    Cardiff will be hoping to spoil the party.

    Cardiff Director of Rugby Dai Young has also been giving his thoughts to Premier Sports pre-match:

    "We've had a few false dawns over the past few weeks - we're looking forward to getting out there.

    "It should be a really good game of rugby today. We know Edinburgh's strengths, but we have to look at our game - the set-piece and shutting them down in attack."

    Edinburgh head coach Mike Blair has been talking to Premier Sports ahead of kick-off:

    "It's great that we've got a pretty full squad to choose from", he said. "It's up to these 23 players to go and prove their worth.

    "We're not thinking about the league table, we're just focusing on our game and what we need to work on going forward."

    These two sides have had a long wait for league action after Covid disrupted the festive fixtures.

    Edinburgh's last game in the URC was at the start of December, and Cardiff's last league fixture was all the way back in October.

    You'd imagine that both sides will be raring to go here. I for one cannot wait.
