Hurricanes vs Sharks
The Hurricanes are by far the second best New Zealand team in the competition. They've only lost two games this season so far and the scary thing is that they're yet to give their best performance. In Wellington they're a tough team to beat and the Sharks will do well just to keep in touch during this match.
The Sharks are South Africa's best side in the competition, winning all their games so far. But the wins have all been scrappy and it seems like they're struggling to get out of third gear. Their first match on tour will give us a better idea of how good the Sharks really are.
Prediction: Hurricanes by 15.
