Griquas vs Pumas Preview


Pumas beat Griquas twice during last season's Currie Cup campaign. I believe they will back it up in Kimberley on Friday once again.

  • Pumas have won their last 3 matches against Griquas.

Head to Head


Last season the Pumas won home and away against Griquas.

Griquas Form


Griquas reached the final of the 2022 Currie Cup, losing out to the Pumas in that final. Last year didn’t go as well as they finished second from bottom.

Despite that, Griquas were still only two points off the top four, winning seven of their 14 games along with a draw and six defeats.

Griquas Injuries & Team News


Griquas have a few new signings this season which will likely make them pretty strong contenders.

Pumas Form


The Pumas lost to the Cheetahs in the 2023 Currie Cup final. They had won the competition in 2022, so their recent results have been impressive.

In 2024, the Pumas finished third on the table but pulled off a superb upset in Durban, beating the Sharks 26-20 in the semi-final.

Their 25-17 loss in the Currie Cup final to the Cheetahs might still haunt them, but they were second best for the majority of the game.

Pumas Injuries & Team News


Pumas have held onto a number of players that saw them reach the final of the last two Currie Cup campaigns.

Verdict

Pumas are backed to get within six points and perhaps win against the odds.
