Hello and welcome to Ellis Park. Its the first of two SA vs NZ Super Rugby contests of the day. Lions host the Highlanders in a massive clash. Lions have to win as they sit a place outside the playoff spots and 6 points of 1st position in the SA conference. Highlands are 3rd in the NZ conference but also need a win to move up the overall table. Loss for either side, will make things very difficult with only a few games left. Lions have only win two from their last five games, while the Highlanders are unbeaten in four matches.
