The match is at DHL Stadium and is a second instalment of the knockout battle between the North and South. The Stormers lifted the first-ever URC last year and will be favourites to move into the semis.

Bulls coach Jake White will bring Marcell Coetzee straight into the Bulls matchday team following his return from a stint in Japan.
And that’s not the best news for the injury-hit Stormers.
