Teams just about ready to take to the field for what can be expected to be an absolute blockbucter

Ya think Chiefs have the edge on this one..

Naholo back big boost, but Ngatai is an even bigger plus for the Chiefs plus Lowe coming back. Chiefs should be too good

The FMG Stadium Waikato host this mouthwatering all New Zealand Derby Between the Chiefs and the Highlanders. These two sides have met 26 times before with the Chiefs winning 15 times and the Highlanders 11. The Chiefs are unbeaten in their last 5 games and the Highlanders have managed 3 wins from their last 5 games. The players know each other very well , which will make for an extremely physical encounter. The Chiefs playing at home will be very difficult to be beat but, if there is ever a team who are capable of beating the Chiefs at home it would be the Highlanders.
