Lions vs Stormers

Warren Gatland’s Lions will be looking to build back some momentum after a tough 17-13 defeat to a South Africa ‘A’ side in midweek.

The likes of scrum-half Ali Price, centre Elliot Daly and flanker Hamish Watson will hope to impress with selection for the first Test against South Africa confirmed tomorrow.

Centre Robbie Henshaw and full-back Stuart Hogg are back, respectively, after injury and a week in self-isolation as a close contact of a positive coronavirus test.

Remarkably, Alun Wyn Jones has been named on the bench despite intially being ruled out of the Tour after dislocating a shoulder against Japan just three weeks ago.
