Lions vs Sharks Preview


Less than a month ago the Lions managed a one-point success against the Sharks. I feel it will be another close one this time around.

Head to Head


Lions beat the Sharks 26-25 less than a month ago in Durban.

Lions Form


The Lons have made a strong start to their Currie Cup campaign and are one of only two unbeaten sides.

They began the tournament with a 26-25 away win over the Sharks before humiliating the Pumas 75-21 in Nelspruit. Last week, the Lions were too strong for Griquas, winning 25-13 on home soil.

Lions Injuries & Team News


The Lions may look to make a few rotations this week.

Sharks Form


The Sharks have a proud history in the Currie Cup, but this season has not started well for the Durban side. They have lost all three games thus far.

In round one against the Lions, the Sharks had the chance to take the win with the last kick of the game, but that sailed wide, and they lost by a point. The Sharks then suffered a 34-31 defeat at Griquas in round two before going down 31-21 at home to the Pumas last weekend.

Sharks Injuries & Team News


With three defeats behind them, the Sharks will have to start picking up results. They will field their strongest available side this Saturday.

Verdict

I am backing the Sharks to get within the 16-point handicap.
