Analysis: The Sharks, playing at Sharks, are generally strong favourites in the Currie Cup, especially against a Lions side that has struggled to find consistency. The Sharks' robust defence and efficient attacking play should see them control the match tempo. However, the Lions have shown they can score tries, making this less likely to be a blowout.
