Matthew Rees is expecting France to attempt to "bully" Wales in today's Six Nations clash but he has revealed that his team are "relishing the challenge".

A win for Warren Gatland's men will seal the first Welsh Grand Slam since 2008.

Although France are out of the championship race, the Wales captain is wary that Les Bleus will be motivated by the prospect of being party poopers.

"The pressure is on us, we are at home, and France will probably want to come here and spoil the party," said Scarlets hooker Rees.

"The changes France have made up front, they are definitely going to try to come here and bully us. That is one thing we have got to be mindful of.

"As a pack, we've got plenty of experience and hunger there. We are relishing the challenge."

Rees will win his 50th Welsh cap in the game.
