It promises to be another entertaining New Zealand derby when the Crusaders host the Hurricanes in the final fixture of their regular season.

The Crusaders know what they need do win with a bonus point and then it will be up to the Chiefs to secure the minimum one point required to top the New Zealand conference.

Many expect the Crusaders to win this following their strong recent performances, but it is worth noting that the Hurricanes were triumphant in Wellington. 

Despite scoring four tries to the home sides two, Todd Blackadder's men lost 29-28 so revenge may be in the air when the action starts.

The Crusaders meet the Hurricanes tonight at 7.35 while at 9.40 the Rebels play the Highlanders. 

On Saturday the Blues host the Chiefs at 7:35pm and the Waratahs face the Reds at 9:40pm.
