Another South African battle here and once again this could be a close one.
These two teams almost finished side by side last year and their squads haven't changed so much as to greatly alter that balance.
It depends, to me at least, which side brings it's 'A' game. That term gets bandied about a lot, but it's never more apt than when describing these two teams. They're not terrible and can in fact be very competitive, with the likes of Pretorious and Marius Joubert on the same field what game wouldn't be? It's just that these two teams only bring their best out for one in every four-five games. Knowing my luck, they'll both bring their 'A' games to this one as they both know they have a reasonable chance to win this opener and set up a season.
If I had to I'd pick a draw, but I won't. The Cheetahs turn up just that little more often.
I'll back them to again.
