Local bookmakers have made the Stormers early favourites to edge the Bulls in Saturday's United Rugby Championship final at Cape Town Stadium.
The Bulls scored an upset 27-26 win over Leinster in their semi-final in Dublin last weekend, before the Stormers secured a home final with a last-gasp 17-15 win over Ulster in Cape Town.
The Stormers finished higher than the Bulls on the URC standings and therefore earned the right to host the final.
The Stormers beat the Bulls twice in the regular season - 30-26 in Pretoria and 19-17 in Cape Town.
The last time these two sides met in a major final was the 2010 Super Rugby final in Soweto, when the Bulls won 25-17.
Saturday's final kicks off at 19:30.
