RECAP: Stormers v Cheetahs

READERS’ FORUM: Welcome to our coverage of the Super Rugby Unlocked Round Six encounter between the Stormers and Cheetahs at Newlands.

ADVERTISEMENT

The Stormers won their last five games on the bounce against the Cheetahs in Super Rugby, although this will be the first meeting between the two clubs in Super Rugby Unlocked.

The Stormers have lost only two of their last 10 home games across Super Rugby and Super Rugby Unlocked and picked up a 23-17 win over the Lions in their only home game of the Super Rugby Unlocked season so far.

The Cheetahs are yet to concede a first-half try in a game in Super Rugby Unlocked, conceding a total of just 12 first-half points in that time.
