The Kings will be looking to add another win to their great run of results when they host leading Australian team the Brumbies.

Both are on 19 points and I do fancy the Brumbies to win.

The Stormers might just edge the Blues at Newlands, the Cheetahs should be no match for the Hurricanes in New Zealand and the Sharks could get back to winning ways away at the Sunwolves.

  • Lions expect the Bulls to put up a bigger fight than their recent results suggestThe Bulls may have dined from the canvass of late‚ but the high flying Lions are reading more into the Pretoria side's pedigree than their recent lean pickings. 

The game of the weekend is the clash between the Lions and the Bulls in Johannesburg.

The Lions look certain to beat a woeful Bulls outfit, but pride in this derby counts for a lot and the margin will be less than expected.
