Grasshoppers play Horseflies
Season So Far
Both teams are having good seasons and both feature on the FNB Top 20. Glenwood, who have hit a rich vein of form are fourth while DHS who are steadily improved, culminating in a 45-30 win over Maritzburg College last week.
Glenwood have had two magnificent wins just recently, beating Affies in Pretoria and a week later beating Monnas in Krugersdorp. They will be glad to be at home this week.
After losing narrowly to DHS last year, Glenwood will surely not sit back and wait for home-ground advantage to win the match for them.
DHS have played 10 matches, winning seven and losing to Hilton, St Andrew's College and Garsfontein. In their last two matches they have beaten Westville and College.
Glenwood have played 11 and won 11. They have had tougher opposition than DHS, playing four team in the Top 20 to DHS's one.
