Murrayfield, Edinburgh (02-09-2011, 19:30 GMT)
Referee: Leo Colgan (IRFU, 2nd competition game)
Assistant Referees: David Changleng, Graeme Marshall (both SRU)
Citing Commissioner: Paul Minto (SRU)
The two sides met on four occasions in 2010/11 with the Welshmen victorious in each instance, whilst the Blues have an impressive won 5, lost 3 record at Murrayfield in all competitions. This is the third straight year that Edinburgh and Cardiff Blues have clashed in round one.
Edinburgh Rugby will be keen to start their RaboDirect PRO12 campaign on home soil, having won their final
three games at Murrayfield last season. The Scotsmen have won their last two matches against Welsh
opposition, however Edinburgh have won just once on the opening weekend since 2005.
Cardiff Blues, who play their first ever match without Dai Young at the helm, finished last season with successive
defeats, both away from home, to fellow Welsh Regions - Dragons and Scarlets. The Blues have won their last
seven encounters with Scottish opponents in all competitions.
