The Bulls will enter their URC clash against Munster with confidence after scoring 47 points against Zebre Parma in Italy last week, and with the knowledge that they have won the last three clashes against Munster, which included their 45-14 victory against them in Pretoria in the quarter-final last season.
That said, the team from Pretoria will be under no illusions that they will go up against a team eager to make up for their six-point defeat against the Glasgow Warriors at home last week.
Spicing up the clash, the Bulls will be desperate to hold onto their top spot on the table, while they will also draw on their experience of knowing what it takes to win again some of the top sides away from home in the last few seasons, which has seen them play in the last three Grand Finals in the cross-hemisphere competition.
Kick off is at 20:45.
