DHL WP to face Saracens in London

PUBLISHED: June 10, 2014


DHL Western Province will play top English Premiership side, Saracens, at Allianz Park in London on Sunday, November 9 (2014).

Western Province Director of Rugby Gert Smal said: “To play Saracens in London will be a great experience for our players and coaches and, while some of our players will be involved in the Springbok tour to Europe, we will field our strongest possible team at Allianz Park.”

Saracens, the 2013/14 Premiership league winners, defeated the Sharks earlier this year, and will be aiming to maintain their 100% record against top South African opposition.

Mark McCall, Saracens’ Director of Rugby, commented: “DHL Western Province have long been one of the leading teams in the southern hemisphere, and it will be a great thrill for our players and supporters to welcome the Cape team to Allianz Park.”

Sarries topped the overall standings in the 2013/14 Premiership, losing just three times in 22 league matches, before going down narrowly to Northampton Saints in a dramatic final at Twickenham at the end of May.
