Crusaders need to beat the Rebels by at least 33 points with a try scoring bonus point

The Crusaders will need to beat the Rebels by at least 33 points with a try scoring bonus point to secure their spot in the Super Rugby Trans-Tasman final.

The Blues, on the other hand, will only need to win against the Western Force to make the final, however, if they lose, they are out of the Super Rugby Trans-Tasman final even though they were leading throughout the competition.

The Highlanders are also vying for a spot in the final and secured a bonus-point victory over the Brumbies last night which means they have one foot in that final spot.

The Rebels will host the Crusaders at 4.35 this afternoon, the Blues will face the Western Force at 7.05 tonight and the Chiefs will take on the Waratahs at 9.45 tonight.
