Cheetahs vs Lions

Saturday’s SupeRugby match between the Toyota Cheetahs and the Lions at the Free State Stadium, Bloemfontein, will be the 13th match between these two teams since the first game on 13 May 2006 at Absa Park, Kimberley.
The Lions are leading with seven wins to the five victories of the Toyota Cheetahs.
