Head to Head
Sharks beat the Lions 29-21 in their last encounter.
Sharks Form
The Sharks had a good season last time out, finishing second on the table. They won 10 of their 14 round robin games, losing four and finished just three points off top.
However, in the semi-final on home soil, the Sharks suffered a 26-20 loss to the Pumas against all odds. They will want to go one better this year at the very least.
Sharks Injuries & Team News
The Sharks are one of the most effected sides with the loss of internationals. Many other players who featured in the URC will also not play as this is their rest period.
Lions Form
Lions managed just six wins in 14 games last season. They finished in sixth place, just two points off the semi-final spots.
As one of the most successful sides in the Currie Cup, the Golden Lions will want to challenge this season.
Lions Injuries & Team News
The Lions are not as affected as some others with the loss of Springbok players, but their URC players also can’t play as they need to rest following a long season.
Verdict
The Lions can cover the -7 handicap against a Sharks side missing too many key players.
Lions -7
