The Toyota Cheetahs will approach their EPCR Challenge Cup match against Zebre in Amsterdam as if it is a knockout game.
Following back-to-back defeats to Perpignan and Cardiff Rugby during the first two rounds, Sunday’s match in the Netherlands is a must-win match in order for the team to stand a chance of reaching the next round.

The coach, Izak van der Westhuizen, told OFM Sport that the win will not be handed to them on a silver platter.
