The Sharks will be keen to continue their recent United Rugby Championship form when they meet Exeter Chiefs in a blockbuster Champions Cup clash on Saturday.

After a morale boosting 21-15 victory against the Stormers in round seven of the URC last weekend, the Sharks will be keen to make Kings Park a fortress against all opponents this season.

In stark contrast to the Durbanites, who have won four of their six URC matches to date to occupy sixth place on the table, Exeter have been struggling in the English Premiership.

They prop up the table after suffering defeats in all seven of their matches – although they have amassed a few bonus points – which will fuel their motivation to get a fresh start to the European showpiece.

They will, however, have to deliver their best performance yet this season to create an upset in Durban, especially with the Sharks boasting a full house of home wins in the URC to date, while Exeter have yet to win a game away from home.
