The DHL Stormers will be aiming to book a spot in the Heineken Champions Cup play-offs when they face French side ASM Clermont Auvergne at DHL Stadium on Saturday.

The final pool match of the tournament kicks off at 19h30 on Saturday at DHL Stadium, with gates opening at 17h30.

The DHL Stormers need just one log point to qualify for the Round of 16, but a win against the French outfit will secure home advantage.

ASM Clermont Auvergne are still in the play-off race as well and will be looking to make it two wins against the DHL Stormers, having claimed a 24-14 win at the Stade Marcel Michelin in December.

Tickets are available from Ticketpro (CLICK HERE to book your tickets).
