The Bulls will be crowned Currie Cup champions at Loftus Versfeld on Saturday, if local bookmakers are to be believed.
According to Sportingbet, coach Jake White's men are 2/5 favourites to beat the Sharks and land their first Currie Cup title since 2009.
The Sharks, meanwhile, have been priced as 19/10 underdogs.
They are unsurprising offerings given that the Bulls are at home and finished top of the regular season log heading into the playoffs while the Sharks finished third.
In terms of score predictions, the bookmaker is expecting the contest to be relatively tight and is offering a 6-point handicap both ways.
Kick-off on Saturday is at 15:00.
