Who will be notching up the top spot on the ABSA Currie Cup log after Saturday’s fixture?
Both teams are top of the log, but Xerox Golden Lions are pipping their counterparts because of a point’s difference to currently be in pole position.
The local team will be playing against DHL Western Province on Saturday in their Currie Cup fixture. Xerox Golden Lions have to make the trip to Cape Town and take on a strong team from the Cape on their home grounds.
The match will kick off at 17:05.
Xerox Golden Lions head coach Johan Ackermann has named his 22-man side to take on DHL Western Province at DHL Newlands this Saturday.
In the forwards, Willie Britz and Warwick Tecklenburg move up into the starting side, joining Derick Minnie in the loose trio. Minnie will captain the team.
