Wales and USA will both be looking to back up impressive WXV opening round victories when they go head-to-head at Cardiff Arms Park on Saturday.\n\nWales head coach Sean Lynn said: "We produced a performance against South Africa that demonstrated that we have moved the dial and all the hard work we put in during pre-season was there for all to see. We know we have to back that performance up against a fit, fast and athletic USA side which will turn up full of confidence after their win against Ireland."\n\nUSA head coach Jack Hanratty said: "A win can be massive for the group and although we were in a battle, the energy since (last week) has been vibrant. Not just because of the win, but because of the potential.

We have the opportunity to go three international wins in a row, which is no easy feat but this is a real challenge."\n\nThe quick six-day turnaround for the USA versus an eight-day for Wales is a key factor in preparation. Wales showed massive dominance against South Africa, while the USA had a real arm wrestle with them this past summer.
