Pro12: Cardiff Blues v Newport Gwent Dragons Kick-off: 14:05 GMT Coverage: Live on BBC Two Wales, BBC Radio Wales, online & Radio Cymru Toby Faletau returns to the Newport Gwent Dragons line-up for the Boxing Day Pro12 derby clash at Cardiff Blues. The number eight returns for his region after starting in all four of Wales autumn Test matches and starts alongside Will Harries, Andy Tuilagi, Phil Price and Nic Cudd. Captain Lewis Evans moves to blind-side with Cudd starting at open-side while Sam Parry starts at hooker. The Blues show four changes to their pack after defeat against Scarlets. Hooker Rhys Williams comes in for Marc Breeze who suffered a finger injury in the defeat against Scarlets while Sam Hobbs replace Taufa'ao Filise who moves to the bench. Lou Reed replaces James Down in the second row and Robin Copeland replaces Josh Navidi on the blindside. Cardiff Blues have made a late change for the visit of the Dragons with lock Down withdrawing from the squad and Macauley Cook taking his place on the bench. Cardiff Blues' only victory in their last seven Pro12 matches was against Zebre on 25 November while the Dragons have won three of their last four games in all competitions. "We can expect a tough game against our visitors the Dragons and a lot of people are saying it has added significance for Heineken Cup qualification," said Blues director of coaching Phil Davies., But we as a team have to treat it as just another game, as it's a long old season Obviously it's a very important game, as it's a derby match and there are local bragging rights at stake, however, it's just one more game. We had a tight result against the Dragons earlier on in the year so it's important that we don't underestimate them. Ex-Wales star's festive fashion The Scarlets won 9-6 at the Blues to kick off Welsh rugby's festive fare, leaving Davies' side with a seventh league defeat in 11 starts. That sees them lying ninth to the Dragons' 11th place in the league and they have also lost all four of their Heineken Cup Pool 6 encounters. The Dragons have a game in hand against the Blues - a New Year's Eve clash against the Ospreys at Rodney Parade. Davies hopes his side can bounce back from the defeat by the Scarlets. He said: "We've had a tough few games, which we've enjoyed and we've put our shoulder to the grindstone and we've got to keep doing that. We want to win that game [against the Dragons] and finish the year on a positive note, then move forward into 2013 and hopefully give the fans more to shout about and a few more wins to celebrate. The former Wales back-five forward also believes his side are improving in terms of performance. We've just got to keep working harder and try and be smarter and grind out some wins. We're getting more competent in every area of the game. Our defence is improving, it was pretty good against the Scarlets [and our] set-piece is getting there. Our kicking game is good in parts. All aspects are pretty good with us, but it's the consistency at this level, the small margins that kill you. And at the moment we're not consistent enough and we're not closing out games that we perhaps may do with a bit more experience under our belt. The Dragons will go into the contest having not played since beating Italian club Mogliano 53-3 in the Amlin Challenge Cup on 16 December. They go into the clash with three wins and seven defeats from 10 Pro12 starts. "The fact that we've got a nice rest going into the game hopefully will benefit our players," said Dragons director of rugby Beale. Any time we play the Blues it's a big day. There's that rivalry, they're probably our biggest rivals; historically they always have been and it's an important game for both regional organisations. Is it a must-win game? Using that term - I'm not really comfortable using that term. Our players, our coaches are focused on this game on Boxing Day and we will go there to win.
