Dragons v Pau Live: TV channel, kick-off time and score updates

Former Wales U20s captain Harri Ackerman will make his first Dragons start since sustaining a severe leg injury as the Dragons welcome French club Pau to Rodney Parade.

The 20-year-old centre is widely considered to be one of the best prospects in Welsh rugby and will be partnered in midfield by another talented youngster in Joe Westwood.

Interim Dragons head coach Filo Tiatia has made seven changes from the side that lost to the Scarlets on New Year's Day.

Che hope is handed a start in the number nine jersey, while while Taine Basham replaces Aaron Wainwright at No 8 with George Young starting at openside flanker. Wales hooker Elliot Dee starts at hooker after pulling out in the warm-up against the Scarlets, while Chris Coleman packs down at tighthead prop.

Young second-row Barny Langton-Cryer makes his first ever start for the Dragons. The Welsh club currently reside in fourth position in Pool 2 of the Challenge Cup but need to win or face an uphill struggle to reach the knockout stages, with a trip to Johannesburg to face the Lions awaiting next weekend.
