MUST-WIN: KNOCKOUTS IS A GOAL FOR CAPE FRANCHISE
The Stormers are preparing for essentially a playoff match when they host English Premiership side Leicester Tigers in their final Champions Cup pool game at the Cape Town Stadium on Saturday.
A shock 61-10 defeat against Harlequins at Twickenham Stoop over the weekend, which was their first loss of the season, saw the Stormers slip to third in their pool and has given both La Rochelle and Leicester a chance of overhauling them to make it into the last-16.
The top four in the pool move onto the competition knockouts, and should Leicester beat them with a bonus point and La Rochelle beat Harlequins, the Stormers could find themselves dropping out.
