Here is everything you need to know about the playoff prospects for all four SA teams as they head towards the knockout stage in the URC.
With the URC well and truly entering the business end, the four SA teams continue to pin their hopes on victories to stay in the race for quarter-final spots or the best possible log positions with only three rounds of pool matches remaining.
The Lions, meanwhile, are under immense pressure to win their match to keep their faint playoff hopes alive after suffering five successive defeats in the competition. The battle between the Bulls and second-placed Glasgow Warriors is expected to be a humdinger given how closely matched the teams are on the table and in terms of their performances this season, with only four log points separating them and both sides being tied on 11 victories in their 15 matches to date.
Fans will have an opportunity to mix and mingle with the Junior Springboks during a meet and greet session in Gqeberha.
