The former Springbok coach, Allister Coetzee, is bracing for a tough but compelling encounter when Eastern Province take on the Toyota Cheetahs in Bloemfontein on Saturday in the SA Cup.
Last year’s clash between the sides is still fresh in the memory. The Cheetahs edged the Elephants in Gqeberha, claiming a dramatic 47–35 victory after a late surge in the Friendly City, despite being under pressure for much of the match.
Speaking to OFM Sport, Coetzee said Saturday’s clash is a significant one for both teams, although he believes the pressure may weigh slightly heavier on the hosts following last week’s no result.
