Cape Town - Emirates Lions head coach Johan Ackermann has named his team to face the Cell C Sharks in Durban on Saturday.
Kick-off is at 19:10.
The forwards see several changes as Jacques van Rooyen comes in at loosehead prop. Hence, Schalk van der Merwe shifts to the bench to provide cover. Additionally, Jaco Kriel has been withdrawn due to the recurrence of a groin injury. As a result, Derick Minnie will start at openside flank and Warwick Tecklenburg is called up to the starting line-up to fill the right flank berth.
