The referee for the match is Marius Mitrea (FIR, 83rd competition game). He will be assisted by Joy Cwengile Jadewenzi (SARU) and Ruhan Meiring (SARU). The TMO is Shaun Veldsman (SARU).

The Cheetahs will be looking for their second win of the campaign after a comfortable home win against Cardiff. After a huge come from behind win against Glasgow, Munster will be looking to maintain pressure on the Conference A leaders.

Bill Johnston gets a baptism of fire at ten with the returning Tyler Bleyendaal starting at inside centre. A glut of unavailable players in the backrow forces Fineen Wycherley to move to the blindside flank.
