On Wednesday evening the Cheetahs beat Western Province 38-21 in Bloemfontein for their second win of the competition and also back-to-back wins at home.

The Springbok, Rosko Specman, is available to play against the Sharks after he was recently released from the Bok camp for the three-Test series against the British & Irish Lions.

The Cheetahs captain, Ruan Pienaar, told OFM Sport that the Sharks will come to Bloemfontein with a mission.

“We are not world beaters yet and we know that there is still a lot of hard work to be done.

“We are facing a really good Sharks team this weekend and they will want to make Durban proud after the time they've had over the last few weeks.

“We know they will be coming here to get a win. We've got a short turnaround now, we've got to prepare well, recover and hopefully put in another good performance on Saturday.”

The Cheetahs coach, Hawies Fourie, will be announcing his team for the match on Friday morning.

Saturday’s match at the Toyota Stadium kicks off at 14:30, and you will be able to stream live commentary via ofm.co.za or the free app.
