Stormers v Cardiff Live: Team news, kick-off time and TV details
@Source: walesonline.co.uk
Cardiff aim to seal a United Rugby Championship play-off spot for the first time as they take on the Stormers in Cape Town.
The Blue and Blacks head into the final game of the season just outside the top eight - ninth by virtue of wins and points difference - but know a win on Friday evening would secure a play-off place.
Lose and they'd be relying on results elsewhere - with Munster, Benetton and Edinburgh all in action tonight.
Matt Sherratt makes five changes from the side that lost to the Bulls in Pretoria last week.
No. 8 Taulupe Faletau, lock Teddy Williams, prop Danny Southworth and half-backs Aled Davies and Callum Sheedy all start.
Kick-off is 6pm UK time, with the match being broadcast on BBC 2 and Premier Sports 1, or you can follow the match on our live blog below.
